What you will be doing As a 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 remote moderation, you will do a ‘virtual visit’ with a centre where you’ll download samples of coursework from a central repository and then feed back to the centre via a video call and follow up with a report to the centre. For visiting moderation, you will contact centres to arrange a visit, visit the centre in person and follow up the visit with a report to the centre. 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. You will generally be allocated a minimum of 5 centres initially, and should expect to moderate each centre at least twice in an academic year (once in winter/spring and again in the summer) What we are looking for Core skills and experience Relevant teaching or assessment experience within the last 3 years.
