About the role
As a visiting moderator, you’ll be looking at samples of candidates’ coursework to make sure that a centre’s marking is accurate and consistent. You’ll be part of a team and you’ll work closely with your team leader.
For visiting moderation, you will be required to visit your allocated centres. We’ll make sure you are fully trained so you understand the moderation process and your part in it. There will also be standardisation activities to make sure you can apply the marking criteria consistently.
The amount of work involved will vary depending on the mode of moderation and the level of the qualification. Typically, the window for visiting moderation is around eight weeks long and falls within the period March - May. You would generally moderate around 16 centres with about six samples per centre.
