Frances I am a 6th Form college of similar numbers and have a team of about 35+ invigilators. Our LSA's act as readers/scribes and we also use them as support for rest breakers or panickers by seating them outside an exam room (doing work) until they are needed.

Nowhere near 75 invigilators - nearer 25 but we could do with more. Chris do your invigilators do all the reading/scribing required too or does your Learning Support team provide the LSA's for this?

Some are part-time staff, only available when not already working. Most are completely external to the college (does comprise a number of retired members of staff - we cherry pick on retirement day!) To obtain some "loyalty" we offer the best invigilators other exams work throughout the year and as a college resource whenever help is needed such as enrolment day, open evenings and even on the reception desk when short of staff.
