Examiners needed

examiner marking papers on his deskIf you are a retired teacher‚ examining is a great way to:

  • put your invaluable knowledge back into the system
  • contribute to the future of young people. 
  • keep in touch with your field and developments in your subject
  • earn some extra income.

If you are a teacher or lecturer about to retire or recently retired you can apply to examine public tests and national curriculum tests. 

Examiners in the key areas of English and religious studies are particularly needed.

This year‚ examiners will be in at the start of the revolution in 14-19 learning. Success for learners will depend on examiners working effectively as part of the new system. 

The reforms mean that the role of examiner will offer:

  • more varied work
  • more flexibility to work when it suits you best
  • greater promotion opportunities
  • excellent training and support 

To find out more and apply online‚ visit the examine the future website‚ or contact your preferred awarding body if you have any questions about subjects‚ workloads or training.
