We are expanding our current team of invigilators to assist the school with external and internal examinations.
We are looking for enthusiastic people who can demonstrate common sense, accuracy, attention to detail and are willing to provide the best exam experience possible for students.
You must be punctual, have a flexible attitude to work and possess excellent communication skills in both written and spoken English with legible handwriting as you will on occasion work as Readers and Scribes for the students.
Our Invigilators are responsible for ensuring that exams are run according to JCQ regulations and that all students are supervised and their individual needs catered for during each exam.
You should:
Be able to work effectively both on your own and within a team
Have excellent attention to detail
Be able to offer a medium to long term commitment and flexibility in working hours and be available during the exams period which are in mid December and most of May and June
Invigilators work on a casual basis and are asked for their availability prior to each examination period. There will be times throughout the academic year when there are no exams and no requirement for invigilators. Equally there will be very busy times during statutory examination periods.
This would be an ideal job for someone looking for part-time occasional work or for someone who is retired or semi- retired. No experience is necessary as full training will be provided for successful candidates, but applicants need to be reliable, punctual, highly flexible, calm under pressure and confident in dealing with teenagers.

There may be an opportunity for a permanent position following the fixed term position for the right candidate.
Tasks will include providing budget information to staff, processing purchase ledger transactions, overseeing the bank accounts, assisting with the VAT returns and cash flow reconciliation.
All our staff benefit from a generous pension scheme and our Employee Assistance Programme.
There are a number of volunteering opportunities at the school, for example in the classroom (reading, language support, career days). Parents help out on a regular basis, for example on school trips, during DIY days and with events.
Work Placements and Work Experience
ESUK can offer a limited number of unpaid work placements and work experience in our Primary and Secondary School.
Work Placements
We only consider work placements for those who are studying towards or have gained a teaching qualification. We prefer candidates who can commit to at least 3 months, however, we will consider any over one month.
In Primary, half the week is taught through English and half taught through French, German or Spanish. In Secondary, History and Geography are studied in a second language. Some of our students require extra language help and the main role of the interns is to aid these students’ progress. Therefore, we especially welcome candidates with fluent German, French and Spanish. There will be some opportunity to work in the English classes but this will be limited.
The work placement functions range from assisting individual pupils during lessons, to taking part of the lesson, as well as supporting the teacher; some supervisory duties will be included.
Accommodation
Work placement candidates must make their own arrangements for board and lodging, but we are happy to post requests on the parents’ Facebook pages, as our children’s families can sometimes offer accommodation.
Work Experience
Each year we offer work experience to a limited number of students from local schools.
Europa School UK is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All staff must be willing to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and an Enhanced DBS (Disclosure and Barring) check.
We reserve the right to research applicants on social media platforms and the internet, and the Governing Board may take this information into consideration during the recruitment process.
