Exam Invigilator

Description:

Are you dependable, observant and comfortable maintaining a calm environment?

Can you follow strict procedures without being distracted - even when the clock appears to have stopped moving?

Would flexible work in Swindon's secondary schools and colleges suit your availability?

TeacherActive is building a team of reliable Exam Invigilators to support schools and colleges across Swindon during mock examinations, internal assessments and formal examination periods.

You do not need to be a qualified teacher, and previous invigilation experience is not essential. Schools need calm, professional people who can follow instructions, pay close attention and ensure every candidate receives a fair examination experience.

Your responsibilities will include

Setting up examination rooms before candidates arrive
Checking seating plans and candidate information
Distributing examination papers and equipment
Supervising candidates under formal examination conditions
Ensuring examination-board regulations are followed
Recording and reporting any incidents or irregularities
Collecting and securely organising completed papers
Supporting the Exams Officer and wider examination team
We are looking for people who are

Punctual, dependable and professionally presented
Calm and confident around young people
Able to maintain concentration for extended periods
Comfortable following detailed written and verbal instructions
Flexible for morning and/or afternoon sessions
Strong communicators with excellent attention to detail
Committed to safeguarding and confidentiality
Willing to complete TeacherActive's registration and vetting process
All applicants will be contacted to discuss suitability and then invited to register with TeacherActive.

Registration involves an enhanced DBS check, identity checks and the provision of professional references. We operate PAYE, so there are no confusing umbrella-company deductions or hidden administration charges.

Working with TeacherActive provides

A dedicated education consultant
Flexible work that fits around your availability
Competitive rates of pay
Flexible work across Swindon
A straightforward PAYE arrangement
Support throughout registration and assignments
Our referral scheme - receive up to £100 when you recommend a friend, subject to terms and conditions
