We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic and reliable Casual Exam Invigilator to provide support and to assist in the process of both internal and external examinations within the school. This is an exciting opportunity for motivated, well-organised and flexible individuals to work with our Exams Officer, Data Manager and school staff to provide the best service for our young people.
Invigilators are given advance notice of the examination dates and may be asked to work whole or part days during the exam series. The role is offered on a casual basis and the working hours will vary in accordance with the exam timetable. There are typically three series of internal “mock” exams and one series of external summer exams in a year, each lasting for two or more weeks.
Candidates should pay attention to the /person specification and explain within their application how they meet the criteria, whilst also describing what they will bring to the post from their own knowledge and experience.
The role will be based at Alvaston Moor Academy, but the post holder may at any time be required to support or work at any of the sites within Archway Learning Trust.
Archway Learning Trust, previously Bluecoat Academies Trust was formed in April 2014 as a result of the very long and successful history of Bluecoat Academy.

The successful candidate will be a dedicated and dynamic leader, committed to supporting students and enriching academy life. They will excel in engaging and inspiring learners, fostering a deep understanding and appreciation of English. With strong communication skills, they will motivate students to achieve their full potential while driving excellence in teaching and learning. Their passion and expertise will play a vital role in shaping a stimulating and high-achieving environment within the academy.
