About the role
This interview examines how you turn physics knowledge into explanations, calculations and safe practical learning for secondary pupils. The panel wants accurate subject thinking, sensible use of limited equipment and assessment that reveals whether pupils understand the principle behind an equation.
How to prepare
- Revise how to explain common misconceptions in motion, forces, energy and electricity.
- Plan a low-cost demonstration with a clear variable, observation and conclusion.
- Practise checking units, signs and assumptions while solving a calculation.
- Prepare alternatives for a practical lesson affected by missing equipment or a power cut.
- Review safe routines for electrical, heat and motion demonstrations.
Common mistakes
- Reciting an equation without explaining the physical relationship.
- Planning a demonstration that pupils can watch but not reason about.
- Continuing practical work after damaged equipment is identified.
- Assuming a correct numerical answer proves conceptual understanding.
