Harris Academy Rainham is a very popular and oversubscribed 11-16 academy which is part of the Harris Federation. We joined the Federation in September 2016 and there are exciting times ahead.

We are due to open a Sixth Form for 400 students in September 2023 and are looking for ambitious and dedicated staff who wish to be a part of our Academy.

At Harris Academy Rainham we have a dedicated group of staff who are deeply committed to serve our community. We have built a school on our core values of Belong, believe, Become. These values are at the heart of our school and all that we do.

What makes us different:

  • We have a firm but fair approach to behaviour. This is built on the use of consistent routines and teaching our students how to behave.

  • Our leaders are role models, they lead by example, admit mistakes, welcome opinions and love honest conversations.
  • We are a staff united against educational disadvantage with a fierce determination to show our students the world beyond Havering.

What we can do for you:

  • Great career progression both within our Academy and the Federation.
  • Excellent professional development opportunities. As a Leading edge school we have been recognised as being at the forefront of educational thinking and research is central to all we do.
  • Meaningful measures to manage workload no graded observations, early finish on a Friday, no onerous marking requirements but sensible feedback policies.
