Thanks , was just wanting to make a start and ive heard some tocs sometimes leave one or two of the tests out so ill just focus on the core ones for now.
Im going to contact them and try and clarify. Although it does specifically state you wont be shortlisted unless you meet all the criteria. One of which is having the required GCSEs and also that you have been in education for 9 years which is such a strange thing to put in an advert. Its for db...
