About the role
As an examiner, you will mark completed exam papers against a mark scheme, working as part of a team with a supervisor who will guide you through the process and answer any queries. Exams for this subject are marked on-screen using RM Assessor. We will make sure that you are fully trained so you understand the exam process and your part in it. There will also be standardisation activities to make sure you can apply the mark scheme consistently. Typically, the marking window is 2-3 weeks long and falls within the period May to July. The exact number of scripts you are allocated will depend on the qualification level and the script length. As a guideline, you can expect the target to be between 200 and 450 scripts. Fees are paid per script marked and are dependent on the complexity and level of the paper. Examiners could earn between £240 to £1,500 for marking a full allocation. We’ll quote specific details and fees when we offer you an examining task.
