Sixth formers are put to the test
The purpose of the exercise is to provide final-year A level students with an opportunity of experiencing the interview situation and of benefiting from the constructive criticism and advice of the interview panel.
A total of twenty interview panels, made up of almost fifty interviewers from a wide range of professional and academic disciplines, and including numerous former students of Loreto, provided the students with advice, feedback and the benefit of their expertise.
