White House Farm Primary School is a growing, ambitious and inclusive primary school in Sprowston, Norwich. Our modern building and extensive grounds, including two playgrounds and a large games field, provide fantastic opportunities for sport, physical activity and outdoor learning. We want every child to flourish. Our curriculum and wider opportunities are underpinned by our values of Respect, Resilience and Reflection, helping children develop confidence, teamwork, perseverance and a lifelong love of learning.
The Role
We are looking for an enthusiastic and highly motivated Physical Activity & Wellbeing Leader (HLTA) to become a visible champion for sport and physical activity across our school.
You will:
- Deliver engaging PE across EYFS, KS1 and KS2;
- Lead active breaktimes and lunchtimes;
- Run a varied programme of after-school clubs Monday–Thursday;
- Support or lead our swimming provision;
- Increase participation in competitions, festivals and sporting events; coordinate Sports Day and other whole-school activities; build links with local clubs, schools and sporting organisations;
- Support colleagues in developing PE provision; and ensure that children of all abilities, including those with SEND or who may be less confident, can participate successfully.
We want someone who understands that great school sport is not just about children who already excel. You will actively encourage those who may be reluctant, anxious or less confident and help them discover activities in which they can succeed.
About You
You will be:
- Passionate about physical activity, sport and children's wellbeing;
- Positive, approachable and able to build excellent relationships;
- Confident managing groups of primary-aged children;
- Inclusive and committed to removing barriers to participation;
- Organised, energetic and proactive; and
- Keen to develop professionally and contribute to wider school life.
- Experience of working with primary-aged children and a good understanding of PE and physical activity are essential.
- Coaching, swimming or First Aid qualifications are desirable, although we are happy to support the right candidate to undertake relevant additional training.
Why Join Us?
This is an opportunity to shape a role and make a genuine impact across the whole school.
You will join a supportive and ambitious team, have the freedom to develop exciting sporting opportunities for our children and receive support to develop your own professional expertise and qualifications.
