London, UK, United Kingdom Harris Primary Academy Orpington Full time

About Us

Our aim is to provide our pupils with a well-rounded and enjoyable education that ensures each child succeeds academically, physically and emotionally - preparing them for life in an ever-changing world. We have identified six shared values, which we develop with the children throughout the academic year: Respect, Unity, Cooperation, Aspiration, Responsibility and Integrity. They are our foundations and we have a clear expectation that all adults as well as children and staff model and respect these values both inside and outside the academy. These foundations have enabled us to build high quality, inspiring education for our children. This is reflected in both the exceptional day to day practice here as well as the improving outcomes our children have achieved in each year. Our knowledge rich curriculum has been designed to challenge and inspire the children; exposing them to a wide variety of exciting experiences including visits, events, sports, music and drama but also time to reflect and respond. As a result, our children develop excellent behaviour and social skills while they learn. We are extremely proud to be part of the Harris Federation which combines 55 primary, secondary and all-through academies across London. As part of a thriving community of schools we benefit from the ability to share, learn, support and challenge each other as we grow together.

  • Attend occasional staff meetings and training sessions
  • Inform SLT immediately of any incident which could be detrimental to the well-being of any child within the Club’s care
  • Offer ideas and participate in new and improved play activities. This will involve offering a weekly activity, e.g. arts and crafts, physical, cooking etc.
