“Being the best version of Sprowston that we can be”

We are looking to appoint a dynamic, passionate and committed teacher of Personal Development to teach across Key Stage 3 and 4 and to contribute to the wider life of the school.

As a school, Sprowston is committed to developing the whole child and we have always had a coherent programme of Personal Development embedded within our curriculum.  Since the introduction of statutory Relationships, Sex and Health Education, this provision has been further strengthened and students enjoy a comprehensive and relevant package of PSHE content and Citizenship.  Students really value this provision and it is an important part of their curriculum experience.
