The Role
An opportunity has arisen at Clacton County High School for the role of an Exam Invigilator to work under the supervision of our examinations officer and form part of a team of invigilators.
The contract is zero hours and would suit a person that is flexible and able to work at a range of different times throughout the academic year to invigilate those students sitting both official public examinations and in-school formal assessments. Applicants should be aware that the school requires a full DBS check to be carried out before any formal work in school can be undertaken.
The successful candidate will be required to support the examinations officer with the administration of examinations and the supervision of candidates to ensure that proper conduct with regard to procedures, expectations and behaviour is adhered to at all times within the exam setting.
Although based at a different site, Sigma Sixth Tendring is very much part of Clacton County High School. The college provides a modern environment with excellent facilities and we are continually developing and adapting our curriculum offer, facilities, and extra-curricular opportunities to support the changing needs of the young people of this area. The invigilator could be requested to support the Examinations Officer invigilating exams at either site.
Our guiding principles of ‘Higher Expectations, Raising Aspirations, Transforming Lives’ for all students and ‘Discover Yourself, Define Your Future’ for the sixth form, together with our PROUD values, permeates throughout both sites and reflects the passion and drive within all staff at CCHS and our sixth form college. The role of Invigilator is expected to promote and instil these ideals, to be a role model to all; both colleagues and students at the college.

We want to recruit the best staff and invest in them believing this will lead to the best education for our students, our commitment is to both our staff and students.

About Clacton County High School
CCHS is a large, popular and inclusive 11-19 comprehensive school that sits in the heart of our community. We operate across two sites, with colleagues teaching both at Walton Road (11-16) and our sixth form college (16-19), Sigma Sixth, based at the Tendring Education Centre.
As a school we have very high expectations of our students in terms of their academic and personal development. We strive to raise the aspirations of all our students to believe that, with hard work and commitment, there should be no barriers as to what can be achieved. We want our students to think big, dream big and become the very best version of themselves. A CCHS education transforms lives and we are very proud of our students and our community.
Our PROUD ideals permeate the school.
At CCHS students are encouraged never to give up. They are expected to take responsibility for their actions whilst embracing the opportunities on offer. We believe that together we are stronger, developing a sense of community; school, local and global. We teach our students the importance of community whilst accepting and respecting our differences and being open to the views and ideas of others.
Our school rules are simple, we expect every student to be: Ready, Respectful, Safe. Our behaviour policy was devised by staff and students to ensure that it supports students to make good choices and become the best version of themselves.
The curriculum at CCHS is thoughtfully considered and sequenced to ensure that all students are supported with the acquisition of knowledge and the development of skills. We aim to ensure that all students are prepared for their next steps and have a deep understanding of themselves so that when they leave us they have the academic and life skills plus the confidence to move onto highly aspirational careers and destinations.
Many of our students continue their post-16 studies at Sigma Sixth, our college. The college has around 400 enrollments and is large enough to have a genuine college feel but small enough to ensure that every student is known as an individual. There are over 30 subjects on offer to cater for the interests and aspirations of all students alongside a great enrichment programme. The Sigma Sixth experience is designed to allow our students to self-discover where they want to go and what they want to be, they are the architects of their own futures. The Sigma Sixth tagline of ‘Discover Yourself, Define Your Future’ reflects the entire ethos of our commitment to our students. Every year we continue to be amazed and inspired by the careers and University destinations of our college students.
At both CCHS and Sigma Sixth, we believe that our staff are the most important resource we have to deliver a holistic education. Our CPD programme is designed to nourish staff and to enable them to develop professionally and personally. Quite simply we believe that the more skilled and expert our staff are, the more effectively they can educate our students.
