Examination Invigilators

We are seeking reliable, organised and approachable individuals to join our team of Examination Invigilators. This is a rewarding opportunity to play an important role in supporting students and ensuring examinations are conducted fairly, efficiently and in accordance with JCQ and school regulations.

Working as part of a friendly and supportive team, you will help create a calm, positive and professional environment for students during both internal and external examinations.

This flexible, term-time role is ideal for those looking to fit work around other commitments, including retirees, parents, students, or individuals returning to the workplace. No previous experience is required, as full training will be provided. Flexibility with working hours during examination periods is essential.
