Do you love organisation, colour‑coded spreadsheets, and the satisfying feeling of everything running like clockwork? Do you get a buzz from helping others and keeping calm when things get busy? If so… we might have just found your perfect job!
Our Exams and Admissions Team is small, friendly, and absolutely central to keeping our school running smoothly. Think of us as the backstage crew making sure the big show goes off without a hitch — from exams to admissions and everything in between.
What You’ll Be Doing
No two days look the same! One moment you’ll be arranging exam timetables, the next you’ll be supporting parents through the admissions process, and then you’ll be helping ensure our students walk into their exams feeling calm and ready.
Here’s a taste of what your role will involve:
✏️ Exams Magic
- Helping plan timetables and allocate exam rooms
- Prepping exam spaces so everything is ready
- Coordinating our superhero squad of invigilators
- Handling papers securely
- Supporting access arrangements for students who need them
- Assisting with results days and post‑results processes
Admissions Adventures
- Helping organise the Gloucestershire Grammar Schools Entrance Test
- Being a friendly point of contact for families and students
- Liaising with parents, carers, local authorities and other schools
- Supporting Year 7 admissions and managing in‑year applications
Who We’re Looking For
Experience in exams or admissions is a bonus — but not a dealbreaker. What matters most is your attitude.
You’ll thrive in this role if you’re:
- A detail‑lover with great organisational skills
- Confident using IT systems
- Calm, friendly and approachable (even in busy times!)
- A strong communicator
- Someone who enjoys working as part of a supportive, close‑knit team
Why You’ll Love Working With Us
Working in our Exams and Admissions Team means joining a supportive group where every contribution matters. You’ll make a genuine impact on students’ lives during some of their most important school moments — and you’ll be part of a team that celebrates teamwork, humour and the occasional biscuit-fuelled morning!
Safeguarding Statement:
We’re committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people, and we expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All appointments will be subject to an enhanced DBS check.
