Are you a Secondary or Primary teacher doing sessional work or looking for a change?
Are you passionate about enabling every learner to realise their potential, whatever their starting point?
Have you ever considered using your skills outside of the classroom or educational centre to work with learners as an Oracy Assessor?
Our company, English Speaking Board (International) Ltd. (ESB International), prides itself on providing qualifications that equip learners with skills for the future, whether it’s in education, work or life. Being part of their exciting assessment journey is both rewarding and inspiring.
To maintain our reputation for providing high quality, flexible assessments around the UK and internationally, we are seeking to engage new Oracy Assessors. Our assessors come from all walks of life, but they share a common goal: to bring out the very best in every learner. From the moment an assessor meets our learners, they offer support and encouragement, showing empathy for each individual’s needs. Their role is central to the ESB International experience. All assessors are trained, standardised and moderated each year, to make sure that their marking is consistent and that they uphold ESB International’s core values in every session. We provide a supportive assessor community, led by a Senior Assessor.
As our centres book assessments when they need them, assessments take place throughout the usual academic year however our international centres book according to their academic cycles and time zones. Usually, we experience peak periods of assessing before Easter (whenever Easter occurs in the year) and across the months of May, June and July. You must be willing to travel within the UK and Northern Ireland, with overnight stays in some circumstances.
This engagement is offered on a self-employed basis. You should have:
- A minimum of 3 years recent substantial teaching experience, have a recognised teaching qualification (PGCE, DET, or equivalent’ or have QTS) or relevant degree
- A current Basic Disclosure/DBS Clearance (or obtain after selection)
- Professional Indemnity Insurance (or obtain after selection)
