Job description

We're looking for an exam invigilator to join our friendly team in the running of all public and internal examinations at Co-op Academy Manchester throughout the academic year. This is a casual contract and working hours will be negotiated for each exam period.

To be successful in this role you will have good attention to detail, be flexible and an excellent time keeper.

Experience is not necessary as full training will be provided.

Applicants should be computer literate.

Applicants should be available during November, January, February, March, May and June on an ad hoc basis.

The role of an Invigilator is key to ensuring Co-op Academy Manchester examinations are managed efficiently and effectively, in line with procedures and processes.

Tasks include preparing exam rooms, distributing papers and stationery, advising candidates of exam conditions, observing students during the exam and ensuring that all regulatory requirements are adhered to.

After the exam you are responsible for collecting exam materials and leaving exam rooms tidy.

This role would suit someone who is confident, flexible and adaptable and is available during the exam series.

Why us?

The academy, based in Higher Blackley in North Manchester, has over 1,600 students on roll and is part of Co-op Academies Trust.

Co-op Academy Manchester was recently judged ‘Good’ by Ofsted in March 2023. Ofsted said that:

“Leaders, trustees and governors strive for all pupils at Co-op Academy Manchester to be successful. Pupils are encouraged to demonstrate the ‘ways of being Co-op’ in all that they do.”

“Teachers have strong subject knowledge. They use their expertise to help pupils to learn well in lessons. Teachers who are not specialists in a subject receive appropriate and effective subject‑specific training. This enables these teachers to deliver the curriculum equally well.”

“Leaders have thought carefully about the curriculum that they want all pupils to learn, including those with SEND. The curriculum is well organised. Subject leaders have thought deeply about the key knowledge that pupils should learn and the order in which this content should be taught.”

All our values are based upon the values of the Co‑op Group, which will inform our behaviours.

Self‑help: We do not expect to be spoon fed – we will try to do things for ourselves in the right way and at the right time.

Self‑responsibility: Everyone should act in a responsible way around the academy site and in the local community. We take responsibility for our own learning; we want to become independent learners.

Equality: We are proud to be part of a very multicultural academy, with students from all over the world; it is important that we treat each other with respect and accept that others may be different from ourselves. We should all of us have equal chances to succeed.

Equity: We want to look for the best in each other. Rewarding others fairly to encourage all types of achievement.

Democracy: We will contribute our ideas to make the academy a success.

Solidarity: We can achieve more by working together, rather than as individuals.

Our Values

Being part of the Co‑operative Group, we are both guided and driven by the Co-op values which are embedded in everything that we do within our Academy - We strive to demonstrate the following ethical values in everything we do - they are our ‘Ways of Being’:

Succeed together

Do what matters most

Be yourself, always

Show you care

So, if you believe in our values, we would love to hear from you!

We offer a wide range of benefits and rewards to recognise the part you play in our success:
