    Probably why do you want to do it, or how do you think your teaching or your school could benefit from it. What is your awareness of what the course entails. have you any ideas for a research topic (if you want to do a masters later!!)

    If you really want to do a bit of homework you could swot up on the lecturers who are in the SEN side of things .. HERE , HERE, or HERE

    You mightn't have access to their research publications but it's good to get an overview as chances are it'd probably be one of those 3 that would be interviewing you!

    SESS is a good kind of practical based website for teachers and the NCSE would be a better place to start from the research end.
