What skills and experience we're looking for

• Yr11 mock exams (November)
• Yr10 internal tests (February)
• during the GCSE final exam season in May and June and
• ad hoc exams throughout the year
Successful candidates will work under the direct supervision of our Examinations Coordinator and must be willing and able to follow multi-step instructions for each exam they are asked to invigilate. Full training will be provided.
This is a casual contract and any hours worked are claimed on an Academy Claim Form. The rate of pay for our Exam Invigilators is currently £13.63 per hour inclusive of holiday pay entitlement. Candidates should note that there is no obligation for the Trust to offer you work or for you to accept it.
What the school offers its staff
The most important thing you need to know is that Warden Park Secondary Academy is a fantastic school to work in! The academy is very well respected in the local community, has a long tradition for excellence and our students’ outcomes are very strong. Our students are excellent - generally above average ability on intake they have an excellent work ethic, standards of behaviour are very high and they are enthusiastic in their support of the academy evidenced, for example, by the very high numbers who engage in extracurricular activities. You will therefore not be surprised to hear that the academy is significantly oversubscribed for the 300 places on offer in Year 7 each year. Places in our excellent Special Support Centre (SSC), which caters for 24 students with Education Health and Care Plans, are equally sought after.
