We are seeking an Exam Invigilator to join our supportive and dedicated team at Hans Price Academy. Due to an increase in exam access arrangements, we require an additional invigilator to support a growing number of rooms and pupils across the academy.

We are looking for an individual who is passionate about supporting students of all abilities, ensuring exams are conducted in a calm, fair and compliant environment.

You will:

• Have practical experience of following processes and procedures accurately
• Possess strong interpersonal, organisational and time management skills
• Be able to remain calm under pressure and respond effectively to unexpected situations
• Demonstrate a caring, patient and understanding approach, with sensitivity to students’ individual needs
