1Question

Tell me about a time you had to adapt your teaching approach for a struggling early years child

During my time teaching Reception, I had a 4-year-old who was struggling with phonics recognition and becoming frustrated during literacy sessions. I observed that he was a kinaesthetic learner who responded well to movement. I adapted my approach by introducing multi-sensory phonics activities, including letter formation in sand trays and phonics actions. Within 3 weeks, his letter recognition improved from 8 to 18 letters, and his confidence during group sessions increased significantly. This experience reinforced the importance of individualised approaches in early years education.
2Question

Describe a situation where you worked collaboratively with parents to support a child's development

I worked with parents of a 5-year-old who was showing signs of separation anxiety, affecting her ability to engage in learning activities. I arranged weekly meetings with the parents to share observations and strategies. Together, we developed a consistent routine involving a special comfort item and gradual transition activities. I provided home activity suggestions that mirrored our classroom approaches. After 6 weeks of collaborative effort, the child's settling time reduced from 45 minutes to 10 minutes, and her participation in group activities increased by 80%.
