We are looking to develop and expand our team of high quality examination invigilators to cover internal and external exams at Sybil Andrews Academy in Bury St Edmunds. Being part of this team will involve supervising examinations to make sure that all regulations are adhered to and helping with related administration such as preparing scripts for dispatch to the examining board. Training will be given in advance of the examination period starting.
No experience is necessary; however, invigilators have to be:
- able to support students in a potentially stressful examination environment
- punctual, calm, responsible and organised
- able to work in a position of some authority
Hours dependent on internal and external timetables. The work is on a casual basis, with work available mornings and afternoons. Invigilators must have good availability throughout May to mid July and occasionally at other times when needed. You should be able to offer a minimum of 3 days per week during the exam season.
All members of the Unity Schools Partnership are responsible personally and collectively for supporting pupils/students in becoming confident individuals, successful learners and responsible citizens. Unity Schools Partnership is committed to equal opportunities, safeguarding, and promoting the welfare of children and young people, and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. An enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check will be required.
