The Role

Fairfax is an academy with traditional values, and an ethos built around hard work, high expectations and opportunity. Our aim is to ensure that our students leave the Academy prepared to succeed in the next stages of their careers, education and training.

We are looking to appoint Exam Invigilators to oversee and supervise examinations and to ensure that guidelines and regulations for the integrity and security of the examination papers and procedures are followed during all examination sessions.

The postholder will be required to have a good knowledge of JCQ Instructions for Conducting Examinations.

The ideal candidate will be reliable, flexible and readily available during main exam periods. They will also need to be confident in leading an exam and be the first port of call for invigilators asking questions.

The postholder will be expected to adhere to the Academy's External Examinations Regulations concerning invigilation, details of which appear in the Invigilation Handbook.

We believe that every child should leave secondary school proud of the young adult they have become, and that every youngster attending Fairfax deserves the opportunity to thrive in an atmosphere where high expectation meet endless possibilities.

Fairfax Multi-Academy Trust is committed to the safeguarding and welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. The successful candidate will therefore be required to undertake an Enhanced Disclosure via the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) as well as providing evidence of qualifications.

This post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975 (2013 and 2020). This means that certain convictions and cautions are considered ‘protected’ and do not need to be disclosed to employers, and if they are disclosed, employers cannot take them into account. Guidance about whether a conviction or caution should be disclosed can be found on the Ministry of Justice
