Job overview
Exam Invigilator
Caludon Castle School
Temporary, casual contract
£11.59 per hour
We are seeking individuals to assist with exam invigilation and also to support students with access arrangements which could include being a ‘reader’ and a ‘scribe’.
This will be over the course of the academic year, on a casual basis.
Duties will include
• preparing exam halls and rooms
• setting out documentation
• supervising candidates during exams
• assisting with seating
• ensuring school procedures are adhered to.
Invigilators need to be reliable and punctual, empathetic towards our students, be able to follow instructions, and be able to stand/walk about for up to 3 hours. Often unexpected situations arise during exams so a flexible approach, thinking about what needs doing and being able to switch priorities, is important. A committed approach to your allocated dates is vital.
No previous experience is required; new invigilators will be fully trained, mostly by shadowing experienced invigilators during our mock weeks.
Training will be provided. The school can be flexible to offer opportunities in the mornings and or afternoons and on certain days of the week if candidates hold other jobs. Exact dates would be confirmed well in advance, with the possibility of additional sessions being offered later as unexpected situations arise. Invigilators offered later dates will of course be able to decline or accept as they wish.
Caludon Castle has great deal to be proud of. We are the kind of place people want to work with a meaningful focus on excellence and a desire to continuously improve.
Our Examinations Officer, Karen Brown, would be delighted to meet you and discuss the opportunity further. To organise a visit please email Stacy Hands stacy.hands@castlephoenixtrust.org.uk

Ofsted report
“Teaching is good across the academy overall and in English, drama, music; history and science inspectors saw evidence of outstanding teaching over time. Teachers are using the academy’s new assessment system effectively to plan lessons that meet the needs of pupils well. Spiritual, moral, social and cultural development is a strength in the academy. Pupils in the main school and learners in the sixth form have an excellent understanding of the wider world, their responsibilities as future citizens and the importance of respect and tolerance. Behaviour is good in lessons and around the academy because the expectations of leaders and teachers are high. Pupils arrive at lessons keen to learn.”
