calling Matron!
Help!! I'm in a bit of a panic as I've got an interview as a boarding matron (non residential). I have zero experience, apart form having a teenage son at boarding school, so I'm not quite sure why I've been called
Anyway, does anyone have any views on what makes a good matron, and any other advice?
I think I need a lie down

I think you should try asking your teenage son!does anyone have any views on what makes a good matron
Good luck, I hope the interview will go well!
Re: calling Matron!
Wow - very exciting, and good luck at the interview.
Is it for a boys house, or for a girls house?

Re: calling Matron!
It's a co ed school, but the boarding house is boys, 13-18.
I wouldn't have a clue about girls! I'm so nervous, because I would really like this job. (even though the term times aren't the same as CH and I would never be able to drop my son off at the beginning of term )

That was a really hard interview - I think my lack of experience clearly showed! Never mind (school wasn't half as nice as CH )

Re: calling Matron!
la la la. they didn't offer me the post starting in Jan, but were so impressed that they have offered me a position in another boys house starting in sept. Which is much better timing for me as ds2 will have started yr 7 and I needn't worry so much about childcare
