Exam Invigilator

Summit Learning Trust Mission Statement

Success through Endeavour

Ambition through Challenge

Strength through Diversity

We are looking to expand our examination team of invigilators for the forthcoming exam season. The team will oversee the main examination hall and access rooms, ensuring correct procedures and regulations are followed. Responsible for collection of examination papers and supporting documents at the end of the examination. Also providing, when required, reading and scribing for pupils who require additional help. Candidates must have good communication skills and be able to commit to dates in advance. Experience is not required, as training will be provided, although applicants will be asked to declare if they have invigilated previously and whether they have any current maladministration/malpractice sanctions applied to them.
