I think it is valuable to go and visit schools before applying, particularly as an NQT, as it gives you a feel for the place. Obviously it's better to go during school hours if possible, so you can see what the pupils are like and how the atmosphere feels.
I got my current job despite not visiting prior to interview. I made it clear in my application letter that I had done some research on the school though, by looking on the website and reading their Ofsted report. Thanks
I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
