The Role

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

Why us?

You’ll be part of a dedicated team, making a real difference to our students’ lives, and supporting staff to succeed in their roles. Every day will be different. You’ll be valued and recognised as an essential part of our team helping college life to function smoothly. 

Experience of working with young people, excellent communication skills and commitment to our shared values are essential. 

Connell staff have the rare opportunity to be a catalyst for social change by transforming the lives of the young people in the communities that we serve. We are a small sixth form college which means our staff get to know our students and how best to support and teach them. We are an inclusive community. We work in a modern building and embrace the latest technology. 

We provide a college experience that makes a significant impact on every student; ensuring they enjoy learning, excel in their chosen subjects and exceed prior expectations to reach their goals. If you share our belief that poverty and deprivation should never limit the quality of a young person’s educational experience or their levels of achievement, then we would love to hear from you.

Connell is an inclusive and diverse community and we welcome applications from under-represented groups.

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!
