Exam Invigilator

Bournville School is a vibrant and diverse school. This is an exciting time in the life of Bournville School. Bournville School (part of Fairfax Multi-Academy Trust) is a mainstream, non-selective, comprehensive school for students aged 4 -16. Bournville School is built on traditional values. Pivotal to this is a positive ethos and culture of learning and success for all students.

We are looking to appoint Exam Invigilators to oversee and supervise examinations and to ensure that guidelines and regulations for the integrity and security of the examination papers and procedures are followed during all examination sessions.  The postholder will be required to have a good knowledge of JCQ Instructions for Conducting Examinations. The ideal candidate will be reliable, flexible and readily available during main exam periods. They will also need to be confident in leading an exam and be the first port of call for invigilators asking questions. The postholder will be expected to adhere to the Academy's External Examinations Regulations concerning invigilation, details of which appear in the Invigilation Handbook.

Fairfax Multi-Academy Trust is committed to the safeguarding and welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. The successful candidate will therefore be required to undertake an Enhanced Disclosure via the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) as well as providing evidence of qualifications.
