Exam Invigilators

Overview

We are seeking to appoint caring, reliable and enthusiastic people to join our hard working, friendly and committed team of invigilators and student support assistants during our mock and external exams. The main period of work will be from May to July and further work in November/December and February/March may follow. There are morning and afternoon sessions between the hours of approximately 8:00am and 4:30pm available.

This position is at the forefront of our exams provision and would suit someone who thrives in a busy environment. No specific examination experience is necessary (training will be provided); however an understanding of the formality and importance of the examinations should be appreciated, e.g. exams are carried out according to the rules and conditions as set out by the applicable examination board.

• Tasks include preparing exam rooms, distributing papers and stationery, advising candidates of exam conditions, observing students during the exam ensuring that all regulatory requirements are adhered to and assisting with collecting of scripts and tidying the exam room in readiness for the following session.
• Those undertaking Reader responsibilities will read exam instructions and questions aloud, accurately and clearly.
• Scribes produce accurate, verbatim transcripts of answers dictated by the student.

Applications should be submitted immediately and candidates will be considered and potentially called for interview as applications are received. The school reserves the right to close the vacancy at any time.

All Saints Catholic Academy Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults, and expects all staff and volunteers to understand and share this commitment. The successful applicant will be subject to an enhanced DBS check, at least two satisfactory references must be provided, and any other safeguarding checks that are required at the time of appointment will be applied to the pre-employment process.

All offers of employment are conditional and subject to safeguarding checks being met successfully. The Trust reserves the right to withdraw an offer of employment should it deem pre-employment checks as unsatisfactory.

Following the shortlisting stage, and prior to making a final decision, the Trust/School will collect and process information publicly available about you by conducting a brief online search using an internet search engine. We do this to ensure that the school acts in accordance with its obligations set out in the latest version of KCSiE.

By signing the application form I understand that I am giving my consent for the Trust/School to carry out an online search if I am shortlisted for this post. The search would be part of the Trust/School's due diligence in line with the latest KCSIE guidance and would be limited to identifying any incidents or issues that have happened and are publicly available online.

I understand that the Trust/School might want to explore any such incidents or issues with me at interview.
