Exam Invigilators
2 months ago
We are looking for Examination Invigilators to support our students taking their examinations on a part-time sessional basis. This includes internal examinations and also external GCSE examinations. These are normally scheduled to take place in November, December, February and March with the main run being from April until June.
Working with young people at a sometimes stressful time in their lives requires a degree of empathy and calm but also confidence and authority.
We are looking for individuals who can commit to working full days, 8.30am until 4pm, several weeks at a time but then having gaps when exams are not in session.
Days and times do vary depending on need. You will normally receive around a months’ notice of when you are required to work, but may also be called in last
minute if a colleague cannot make it.
Previous experience as an examination invigilator would be an advantage, but not essential since we will provide full training on JCQ regulations and the school’s examination policy and
procedures.
**Examination Invigilator Responsibilities**:
- Assisting with the setting up of the examination rooms
- Upholding the rules of regulations of the examination room as per the awarding body guidance and ensuring full compliance by all parties
- Dealing with queries raised by the students
- Distribution and collecting of examination papers
- Ensuring that the school’s policy and procedures are followed closely throughout the examination process
- Ensuring all the students are calm, prepared and ready to provide their best work
**Examination Invigilator Essential Skills**:
- Strong communication skills, with the ability to liaise with staff and students daily
- Able to empathise and deal with stressed teenagers who may behave out of character, in a calm and confident manner
- Extremely patient and able to stay focused and vigilant through an examination period
- Organised and thorough with a strong attention to detail
- Excellent time management skills
- Enjoy working as part of a team
