A UNIQUE OPPORTUNITY TO SUPPORT OUR STUDENTS THROUGH THEIR GCSE EXAMINATIONS

Watling Academy is seeking dedicated and reliable Exam Invigilators to join our team to assist with internal and external exams. We are looking for individuals who are passionate about ensuring the smooth running of exams and who can help create a calm and compliant environment for our students during this important time. This is a vital role as we support our first Year 11 cohort through their GCSE exams and prepare other Years to take formal examinations and prepare for our first cohort of Year 12 students in September 2025.

Your responsibilities would include:

  • Preparing exam venues, distributing and collecting exam papers
  • Ensuring that all exam regulations are followed
  • Maintaining the security of exam papers at all times
  • Working independently, but also within a team

Exam Invigilators are required to have strong communication skills, attention to detail and the ability to stay calm under pressure are essential. Your attentiveness will help maintain a fair and controlled setting, allowing students to focus on their exams. While previous experience would be beneficial, it is not required as full training will be provided.

This academic success is built on the supportive, well-disciplined and dynamic learning environment we provide, which enables our students to focus on their studies. We believe that for a School to succeed there needs to be a genuine spirit of partnership between students, the Academy and parents.
