Case Studies - Harris Academy Bermondsey

Enrichment

“Enrichment at HAB is about unlocking every student’s potential by offering inspiring opportunities that build confidence, spark ambition and develop skills for life beyond the classroom.”

Starting Year 7

“In order to make sure the transition works for every child that starts in Year 7, we make sure that we communicate with parents and carers. We make sure that we really get to know the girls and get to understand their needs.”

Active Citizens

“We believe that education doesn’t just teach academic skills, it teaches life. By the time students leave HAB they develop the skills and attributes needed to succeed in society.”

Student Leaders

“Our student leaders are enthusiastic, they are consistent and they are committed. They lead with compassion, ambition and respect. They sit on panels and their voices are considered and it shows that we value their ideas and their contribution to the school.”

Iasmin

“The support offered at HAB has pushed me personally to strive in my academics and outside my studies as well, which I am really thankful for as it has allowed me to realise my abilities.”

Caroline Hurd

“Every day at HAB I’m inspired by our students and the sense of community.”

Robert Primus

“I wanted to make a difference to the lives of young people by sharing my passion for history. I’m stretched and challenged every day but feel fully supported having been a participant on the Federation’s Diverse Leaders Programme.”

Megan Greet

“Working within the Harris Federation has given me great opportunities to develop as a leader and build a really flexible skill-set and knowledge base. I joined as a lead practitioner and a year later gained promotion to Assistant Principal.”

Genevieve Bent

“Being a part of the Harris Federation network has been fundamental to my professional development. I have worked with amazing and inspirational colleagues, and I am fortunate to have built my career alongside them.”
