A secondary academy of West Norfolk Academies Trust

At Smithdon High School we share a simple vision. Every child is supported to make progress in every single lesson, every single day.

These are exciting times to join our school. We are the newest member of a dynamic academy trust and under a new Headteacher we are building on our Good Ofsted judgement to become a truly great school. As a result, our staff receive fantastic professional development opportunities.

Our school serves the coastal town of Hunstanton and the surrounding area with a clear focus on knowing the strengths and needs of every student. We believe every child deserves a warm welcome to every learning opportunity and a personalised learning experience; challenge and support leading to exceptional progress.

Although we boast a wide range of modern resources and facilities, our main building was the birth place of the Brutalist style of architecture in Britain and enjoys the protection of being Grade 2 listed. The building not only influences modern architecture but has also shaped our shared values of strength, integrity and excellence.

At Smithdon High School we welcome applicants who want to make a positive difference to the lives of our students.
