The task

As an Assessment Content Developer who undertakes the IB Scrutineer task, you will be responsible for validating the content of the final IB assessment materials. These can include examinations, mark schemes and pre-release materials. Completing the assessment as if you were a student, you will check that questions can be answered. Following this, you will review the mark scheme to ensure it has sufficient coverage and detail. You will produce a report commenting on any errors or omissions in the assessment materials.

You will work independently to validate the content rather than offering comments on suitability. You will have to be receptive to feedback on your work to ensure standards are met. 

As you will be working with live assessment materials, confidentiality is essential. Tasks will be completed online via our secure systems. You will have to comply with deadlines and have excellent attention to detail to ensure assessment materials are error-free.
