The posting

We are looking for reliable people to join our growing team of Exam Invigilators. You will play a key role in upholding the integrity and security of the examination process. This is a flexible role and you will be required to work during the main exam period in May and June as well as some days during internal assessments throughout the academic year on a casual basis. No previous experience is necessary, as training will be provided. Ideal candidates will be reliable, have a calm and organised attitude, have excellent verbal and written communication skills and be a confident and a reassuring presence to candidates in exam rooms. Full details can be found in the attached job pack.

Casual Agreement

Flexible hours; by negotiation and agreement during the summer exams period in May and June, typical full days are 8.00am-5.00pm and half days 8.00am-12.30pm. As well as some weeks in November and February. We expect invigilators to be available for a minimum of 2 days per week during this period. Typical full working days during the exams period are 8.00am-5pm and half days 8.00am-12.30pm or 12.30pm-5pm.

About the school

The Swan School, part of the River Learning Trust, is Oxford’s first new secondary school for over 50 years, and opened in September 2019. When full, we will have approximately 1,200 students on roll, of whom around 300 will be in the Sixth Form. Our students are drawn from a local catchment area and the school is at the heart of the community.

Learning from the most successful approaches at the best schools, The Swan School provides a uniquely challenging and structured experience in a caring and disciplined environment. The ethos is academic; we regard an excellent academic education as the entitlement of all young people, no matter what their background or previous experiences of learning. Students are inspired and nurtured, acquiring the knowledge and skills to think critically and creatively. They will learn to be confident, resilient and ambitious, and will have high expectations in terms of their own achievements and their contribution to wider society.

Student outcomes at The Swan School are exceptional - in 2026 our GCSE Attainment 8 score was 59.4, meaning that students achieved almost 1.5 grades higher than the national average across their eight best subjects, including English and maths. In 2023, the school was graded as ‘outstanding’ by OFSTED for Behaviour and Attitudes, Personal Development, Leadership and Management, and Sixth Form. The Swan School is part of the River Learning Trust, which facilitates collaboration, professional development, and opportunities across a wide range of other highly successful schools.

The RLT Connection

The Swan School is proud to be part of the River Learning Trust (RLT). This collaborative culture provides our staff with enhanced professional development opportunities and the security of a large, successful trust while maintaining our school's unique identity.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
