Casual Exam Invigilators job summary
We are a popular and heavily oversubscribed 11–16 mainstream school with the additional expertise and facilities to include two focused SEND provisions, for young people on the autistic spectrum, and for those who are deaf and hearing impaired (ARC and Deaf Academy). We have also developed a base on site to support pupils with social, emotional and mental health needs. Furthermore, our small and bespoke sixth form provision (WOA6) caters for students in Years 12 and 13 who have EHCPs.
We are an outward facing school and work closely with our local community – families, schools, businesses and community groups, with whom we share a common priority - our pupils are front, back and centre of every single decision we make at WOA.
At WOA, we believe that every child has the potential to achieve and we expect nothing but the best for each and every one of our students. Through our curriculum, we aim to provide an excellent education for all our students; an inclusive education which raises aspirations and brings out the best in all of them and prepares them for success in education and later life. Our curriculum is progressive and designed to provide children with the core knowledge they need for success along their learning journey.
We have a team of dedicated, specialist curriculum, SEND and student welfare staff who work together to ensure that the needs of each individual child can be met. Every single member of our team teaches at Wodensborough and this includes the Principal. We passionately believe that good teaching plays one of the most important roles in shaping and creating successful futures for our young people.
We are looking for Exam Invigilators to join our experienced and supportive Exams Team. We are looking for someone who believes (as we do!) that whatever your starting point in life, this should not dictate your future destination. We want someone who believes in social mobility. Someone so passionate about supporting the academy to ensure each and every student receives the opportunity to access exams to support their next steps, and develop their sense of awe and wonder in the world in which we live.
This role would suit an enthusiastic, supportive and reliable individual who is looking to join a team of like-minded people. The successful candidate will have access to wider professional development through the Exams Office and Academy CPD programme.
We believe that we all have an important part to play in raising standards. We truly believe that what we do in our classrooms changes lives. Why not come in, meet the team and join us on our journey?
