Become an examiner, and a better teacher as a result 

Chemistry teacher at Bolton School Boys’ Division, Becky Kell, wanted to be an examiner for years. Then in 2022 she got her opportunity. In this informative how-to article, Becky talks about everything she learned, as well as how to excel as an examiner. It’s full of tips and advice, and will be an invaluable resource if you are thinking about trying it out or have just started out as an examiner.
