Harris Academy Battersea is now in its fourth year and during the time it has been open it has established itself as one of the highest performing schools in London. In 2017, we have been awarded the Evening Standard School of the Year as well as being named one of the Sunday Times Top 20 Schools in the country. In the last academic year, we were ranked 4th highest school in England and the top non-selective school nationally.

It means that a student who has predicted 10 'C' …

Hanford believes children should be children for as long as possible, climbing trees, building dens, riding ponies, and playing in the garden. Giving girls free time is something Hanford has always believed in as it encourages girls to become lost in their imagination and develop creatively.

We are not sure how many headmasters/headteachers there have been since the school opened in 1940. Also, it is not clear dates for each headship. Below is what we know/think the dates are. Those in black we are sure of, those in grey we are less sure. Strangely we know most about the first two as they kept headteachers' logbooks. We also know quite a bit about the last three, but little is known about those in between. More definite, preferably documentary evidence would be much appreciated. We believe the values expressed in the list below best sum up the spirit and ethos of the school and act as a set of guiding principles steering the school in the right direction…
