Exam Invigilators play a vital role throughout the academic year supporting internal and external examinations for all year groups at the academy. The role requires you to be patient and supportive of students whilst adhering to the JCQ guidance for examinations.
Invigilation may be in a hall venue with a whole year group supported by other colleagues or, on occasion, in a small room venue supporting more vulnerable students.

• Monitoring students to ensure that there is no malpractice during the exam.
• Distributing stationery and exam papers to the students.
• Ensuring that exam conditions are adhered to at all times.
• Preparing the exam hall and other exam rooms to ensure that it meets requirements.

• Answering any queries that a student may have about the exam.
Applications without a supporting statement will not be considered.
We reserve the right to close this vacancy prior to the closing date if a suitable candidate is found.
Grove Academy is committed to safeguarding children and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.

About Grove Academy
Grove Academy is the first all-through school to open in Slough and provides opportunity and education for 4 to 16 year olds, underpinned by high-quality teaching and learning and a common assessment framework. This continuity ensures that we can avoid the dips in performance associated with transition from one phase or school to another.
As one school we are able to teach subjects to our younger children via specialist subject teachers, such as modern foreign languages and PE. We can provide pastoral care for children in challenging circumstances by offering a ‘joined-up’ strategy and support families more consistently over a longer time.
