Do you have students taking exams this Autumn to improve their grades? If so, make sure you don't miss out on the DfE's support package to help you with the costs of running these exams.

The package has been introduced to assist those students wishing to improve their grades who are taking exams in the autumn. The support package will help schools with the associated costs of running these exams, including the booking of venues, sourcing invigilators and autumn exam fees.

As we are the Government's approved supplier for this programme, you will be able to book Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checked individuals who are suitable for the invigilator role through Randstad Education immediately. You will be able to claim back costs for autumn exam invigilation if these exceed the savings you made on summer invigilation, following the cancellation of exams. The Department for Education will be opening the claims process for this later in the autumn term.
