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. There will be two or more ‘examination periods’ throughout the year, some being internal examinations alongside the key period of mid-May to mid-June for the GCSE examinations.

Basic Responsibilities:

• 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.

• Providing support where necessary should an emergency arise e.g. sick student, fire evacuation.

• Answering any queries that a student may have about the exam.

Applications without a supporting statement will not be considered.
