Programme information

The SSAT Applications and Interviews modules provide practical support for anyone applying for headship.

There are two online modules, the first covers the application process and writing a successful application.

The second addresses what to expect on interview, offering guidance and the opportunity for practicing responses to common questions. Modules are supported by inter-sessional activities and resources.

The modules are led by the SSAT Education Team and practising school leaders. We hope these modules will help you not just get a job, but to want the job you get – ensuring it is a good fit.
