From NQT to SLT: Tom Christopher, Harris Science Academy East London
Our Senior Assistant Principal, Mr Christopher, talks about his career journey from NQT to SLT and his role at HSAEL.
One of my main responsibilities as Senior Assistant Principal is to lead our character education programme which ensures our students can articulate themselves effectively and stand shoulder to shoulder with students from more advantaged backgrounds and giving them as many opportunities to excel and be leaders in their chosen field.
We also run 12 character education days across the course of the year. And by the time students leave us, we want them to have visited an art gallery, gone to the theatre, been to a sports performance, and had a chance to be involved in debating and public speaking. We also offer residential trips as part of the programme as well.
