It couldn’t be a more exciting time to join Parkside School which joined Wellspring Academy Trust last year and was recently awarded the title of Multi Academy Trust of the year. As such, we are now in year two of an exciting journey in this new partnership and we are looking for a like-minded, motivated staff to join us on this journey. Wellspring Academy Trust is known for its inclusive practice and these values are matched by Parkside School. ‘We make a difference’ If you have the same philosophy, this may be the job for you. 

Details of Wellspring Academy Trust can be found at: https://wellspringacademytrust.co.uk/

Our vision for Parkside School is that Parkside School should visibly and substantively impact on the community it is embedded within. This impact should be important, meaningful and considerable. This means young people from Parkside should develop into well-rounded young people who know how to keep themselves safe. We want students to have a personal and specific hope for the future which they can articulate, believe in and share with others; students who can empathise, critique, protect, love, inspire, make, design, explore and understand; students who are willing to try things they have never done before, do things they don’t want to do and be willing to reinvent themselves to become the best that they can be.

As an Exam Invigilator you will have a key role in upholding the integrity and security of the examination / assessment process. This role provides an element of flexibility as you will be working as part of a team, supporting not only with formal, external examinations but also during our internal mock exam seasons. It is important to us that whether internal or external, our examination processes and procedures support our students to know and understand what is required of them to help them flourish in these situations. 

We encourage any applicant to come and visit the school or to speak with  Helen Baker at hbaker@parksideschool.net for further details.

If you are as excited by this challenge as we are and you think this might be the role for you, please apply by submitting a fully completed application form, having taken note of the attachments, by Friday 18th April at 9am. If we receive sufficient applications prior to this date, the advert will be closed earlier.

Interviews for successfully shortlisted candidates will be undertaken the following week. 

The School has adopted the principles of Safer Recruitment and will safeguard and promote the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to do the same.  Successful applicants will be required to undertake an enhanced criminal records check via the Disclosure and Barring Service. Parkside School is an Equal Opportunities Employer.
