Exam Invigilator job summary

Thank you for your interest in the post of Exam Invigilator at Walton-le-Dale. I am delighted that you are considering joining our school and becoming part of a community that truly values its staff and students.

 

Walton-le-Dale is a smaller secondary school, and this gives us a distinctive and welcoming atmosphere. Visitors often comment on the warmth and friendliness of the school, and it’s something we take great pride in. Our size allows us to know our students well as individuals and to tailor our support to meet their unique needs. This approach is central to our ethos, and we are proud to hold Flagship status for the Inclusion Mark, a recognition we have maintained since 2008.

Our student-centred philosophy underpins everything we do. While academic achievement is vital, we believe that education should also help young people develop into confident, responsible, and compassionate individuals. Strong relationships are at the heart of our school community, and it is through these relationships that we help our students achieve their best, both in and beyond the classroom. The vision for Walton-le-Dale High School has been designed to focus on three pillars:

• Sense of Belonging (BELONG): Celebrating our school’s heritage and community roots whilst fostering a strong sense of belonging and identity for every student.

• Opportunities for everyone (EXPLORE): Ensuring equitable access to enriching experiences that develop talents, broaden horizons, and prepare students for future success.

• Aiming for excellence (EXCEL): Establishing high expectations and ambitious standards across all aspects of school life, empowering students to exceed their potential.

Our students come from a wide-ranging catchment area, including Blackburn, Preston, and surrounding localities. As a truly comprehensive school, we welcome students from diverse backgrounds and abilities. The school’s strength lies in its people. Across all areas of the school, from teachers to pastoral staff, and from learning support to administration, you will find a team that is collaborative, compassionate, and committed to excellence. Sharing expertise and working together is a hallmark of our approach, and individual professional development is highly valued. We believe that when our staff are supported to grow and succeed, our students benefit immensely.

We are now looking for a passionate and dynamic Exam Invigilator to join us in shaping the next chapter of our school’s success. If you have the energy, vision, and determination to make a real difference, we would love to hear from you.
