And what is the school’s biggest opportunity?
Our greatest opportunity lies with our Sixth Form, which is the jewel in our crown. Norwich High School for Girls boasts a purpose-built Sixth Form centre, along with a private cafe and common room for the students. Sixth Form students enjoy a free dress code, and are taught seminar-style, in small groups, by teachers who really know them, providing them with the perfect stepping stone to the world beyond secondary education.
Leadership opportunities are unparalleled in our Sixth Form. From the Big Sisters programme to captaining sports teams, charity programmes or directing school plays, everyone has the opportunity to lead. Our students develop into incredibly successful and confident young adults but remain humble and modest, and never arrogant.
Sixth Formers at Norwich High School for Girls receive personal, 1 to 1, support with university and apprenticeship applications, far more than students elsewhere. After they leave, they have access to the GDST Rungway, which is a free online network of over 100 000 GDST alumnae, all of whom have actively signed up to support other GDST women in their career journeys.
