Welcome from the Head of Academy and the Principal

DASWe are delighted to welcome you to the Harris Girls’ Academy Bromley website. We are a highly successful ‘outstanding’ Academy in New Beckenham with girls only in Key Stage 3 and 4 and boys joining us in the Sixth Form.

Our state of the art facilities are new and reflect our approach to learning which combines the very best of traditional and modern approaches. For us, students should learn as many different subjects as possible; the curriculum is rich with subjects such as Latin, Classics, Mandarin as well as Art, DT, Textiles, Drama, Music, PE, Maths, English and Science.

Our examination results place us within the top 100 highest performing schools in the country. In 2023, Progress 8 was +0.97, 82% of the girls achieved a pass in English and Maths at GCSE and 71% of the girls achieved the challenging Ebacc (English, Maths, Science, Humanities and Modern Languages). These figures are all well above the national and borough averages.
 
However, whilst we are very proud of the girls’ achievements, we are proudest of all of the relationships that develop between the girls (and boys in Sixth Form) and their teachers. The teachers at Harris Girls' Academy Bromley, will always go the extra mile to ensure that every child achieves beyond what they would expect. Our motto, All Can: We Will summarises that whilst many ‘can’ achieve the remarkable we ‘will.’

If you would like to come and see us in action, we would love to welcome you to one of our open events and we ask that if possible, you come to the ones that happen during the normal Academy day.

David Astin, Executive Principal

Steve Sherwin, Head of Academy
