Who are The Hereford Church of England Academy?
Here at the Hereford Academy we serve the
community located to the south of the river Wye in the beautiful city of
Hereford. We cater for students aged 11
to 16, striving to provide the best possible
education and equip all our students to be well rounded and caring citizens who
will make a positive contribution to society.
We are part of the Diocese of
Hereford Multi-Academy Trust, which stretches from the foot of Eastnor castle
to the Shropshire Hills, from the Welsh border to the threshold of
the Malvern Hills. The Trust is a family
of 15 wonderful schools which are spread out across the Diocese of Hereford
(Herefordshire, South Shropshire and Worcestershire).
We currently have a group of
dedicated Invigilators and are looking to recruit additional members to join
the team due to our increasing student numbers.
The post is on a casual basis
invigilating GCSE and mock exams and generally helping to support students
through the provision, supervision and monitoring of internal and external
exams. External examinations take place
predominantly in May and June each year, but mocks take place in the Autumn and
Spring terms as needed.
We are looking for
individuals who can promote a supportive atmosphere for our students so that
they achieve their best. We are looking
for individuals who can be flexible, patient and are able to stand for periods of
time. This is a great opportunity for
those with good communication skills, an observant eye and excellent attention
to detail. Successful applicants will
need to work effectively in a busy environment and will be responsible for the
smooth, secure running of allocated exam sessions, working under the direction
of our Examinations Officer.
Applicants will assist with
the preparation of the exam rooms, distribution and collection of exam papers,
the timing of exams, supervising the examinations and assisting students with
additional needs. Applicants will ensure
that Examination Board and JCQ Regulations are adhered to at all times.
Previous experience of
working in a secondary school or with young people is desirable but not
essential. Full training for the role
will be given.
The Trust and school are committed to safeguarding and promoting
the welfare of children, therefore all shortlisted applicants must be prepared
to undergo a number of checks to confirm their suitability to work with
children and young people, in accordance with the DfE’s “Keeping Children Safe
in Education”. An enhanced DBS will be required for this
role. The Trust welcomes applications from all sectors of the
Community.
Please do not attach copies of CV's/qualification
certificates. Only the information detailed on the application form will be
used as part of the short-listing process. Applications from recruitment
agencies will not be accepted
