St George's is a thriving independent boarding and day school of 270 girls aged 11-18 around 45% of whom are boarders (full, weekly and flexi) and with a Sixth Form of approximately 80 pupils. St George's offers an ambitious, connected and future-facing education tailored for pupils to realise their potential both at school and in fulfilling adult lives ahead.
Awarded 'excellent across the board' in its November 2022 ISI inspection, the School is a place where girls flourish academically, creatively, physically and morally, a place where risks can be taken, lessons are learnt and challenges are welcome.
We are a welcoming school with a warm sense of community. Visitors are impressed by our facilities within a beautiful setting and the ambition of our educational provision.
Our unique extended day and flexible boarding model allows all girls the time and space to foster confidence, independence and academic curiosity providing a future-facing education exclusively for girls in a world not yet designed for girls and introduces them to contemporary subjects and topics, through speakers, workshops, classes and visits.
St George's offers an education that is grounded, relevant and fosters employability. The school operates as an Educational Trust administered by a Board of Governors, is a member of the Girls' Schools Association (GSA), Boarding Schools Association (BSA) ISBA, AGBIS and is ISC accredited.
We are looking to recruit Exam Invigilators to take up post in The Summer Term 2025 to support our busy Exams department in invigilating public examinations and some of our internal examinations.
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 public examination maladministration/malpractice sanctions applied to them. The responsibilities of the role are:
Main Duties:
* To conduct examinations in accordance with the Joint Council for Qualifications (JCQ), awarding body and St George’s School instructions;
* To play a key role in upholding the integrity of the examination/assessment process.

Candidates will be required to undergo a DBS check. Once successful candidates are in receipt of a satisfactory DBS Certificate, they will be asked to subscribe to the DBS update service and the School will maintain the annual subscription to this .
The hourly rate for this role will be £14.25 which includes an element to cover statutory holiday entitlement.
Additional Staff benefits include:
* Use of state-of-the-art gym with Technogym equipment at allocated times
* Staff swimming sessions and family swimming sessions in the recently built 25m, six-lane indoor pool
* Supportive Continuing Professional Development (CPD) programme
