Overview
The Priory Learning Trust (Somerset Business Award winner for Employer of the Year 2023) is looking to recruit enthusiastic Exam Invigilators to work at The King Alfred School - An Academy site in Highbridge. As an Exam Invigilator, you will play a key role in ensuring that examinations are conducted in line with school and JCQ (Joint Council for Qualifications) regulations. You will assist with setting up the exam room, admitting and seating students, distributing and collecting exam papers, monitoring students during exams, and maintaining a calm, supportive environment. Full training will be provided. This is a casual, term-time-only role with hours dependent on the school's examination timetable. If you are committed to supporting young people and would like to be part of an important stage in their education journey, we would love to hear from you.

The amendments to the Exceptions Order 1975 (2013) provide that certain spent convictions and cautions are 'protected' and are not subject to disclosure to employers, and cannot be taken into account. Guidance and criteria on the filtering of these cautions and convictions can be found on the Disclosure and Barring Service filtering guide. This role involves working with children on a daily basis and is therefore in regulated activity. Offers of employment will be subject to satisfactory references, online searches and Disclosure and Barring Service clearance.
