Look at the subjects covered in the person spec - the panel will be testing as many of those items as possible.

Likely to be questions on equal ops, so worth making sure he can answer those fully!

There will probably be something on data protection and secure data handling.

Savvy_Sue

Ah yes, confidentiality: "You answer the phone to someone who asks for contact details for the parents of one of the children. What is your response?"

One thing that is very hot at the moment is Child Protection.

While I wouldn't expect him to know much about it or to know who is the dedicated person within the centre I would expect something along the lines of 'I would pass my concerns onto the person dedicated to deal with child protection issues as soon as possible to let the experts in this field deal with the it they see fit.'

Edit - just read your last post properly - congratulations that man :T
