Summary
Thank you for expressing an interest in the post of
Sixth Form Support Officer. Our Sixth Form Support officer will play a key role in supporting our students to achieve their potential.

About Us
Harris Academy Battersea is a mixed state secondary school serving a truly comprehensive community in the heart of London.

We are an Ofsted 'Outstanding' school with a track record of delivering fantastic outcomes year on year for our students.


Our Academy is centred on the values of Knowledge, Integrity and Resilience and these underpin the way we work for both students and staff.

Our staff are inclusive, diverse and committed to our mission:
we develop aspirational young people to thrive in a changing world.

HABS offers a broad, academic and challenging curriculum founded on six key curriculum aims:

  • To develop deep, long-lasting knowledge
  • To develop students into accomplished readers, writers and orators
  • To provide experiences within and beyond the classroom that enrich learning and ensure students can make informed choices about their futures
  • To equip students to challenge injustice in all its forms
  • To enable students to understand how they learn
  • To support students to reflect on their choices and values to improve themselves and their community


These aims underpin all elements of our curriculum, and we see our core academic curriculum and wider personal development curriculum as intrinsically linked.

All staff at the Academy contribute to the personal development of our students through their interactions with students, modelling our values and through their contributions to the wider life of the academy.

Our associate staff work within thriving teams and are integral to the functioning of our Academy.

There is close collaboration between teaching and associate teams, and we are constantly seeking ways to embed the most effective possible collaboration in all aspects of what we do.


A thriving school can only function with fantastic staff, and our vision is to make working at HABS both enjoyable and sustainable.

The wellbeing of staff underpins every decision we make, and we seek to ensure that every member of staff can enjoy a work-life-balance enabling them to bring their best to work each day.


As a part of the Harris Federation, all staff in the Academy benefit from being part of our network of more than fifty primary and secondary academies across London.

Teaching and associate staff regularly draw on the support of experienced colleagues from across the Federation, participating in network meetings and benefitting from bespoke expert support from our central team.

This enables every colleague to achieve success and pursue excellence in their roles.
