Academy Information

Our culture is grounded in finding ways to say ‘yes’ for what works best for you in your academy, department or classroom. In building a thriving hub of expert practitioners, school leaders and outstanding school networks, we recognise efforts and deliver highly impactful support and development directly back into our people and academies.

Harris is doing so much to invest in staff and ensure they get the development they need. There are so many interesting projects to work on, all of which make such a difference to our students. 

Wira, Apprenticeship Manager

At Harris Federation, we are in this together. Our people are at the centre of cultivating a fairer, brighter future for all the young people we serve. We benefit from a vast network of practitioners, dedicated staff and aspirational peers to pool knowledge, collaborate and inspire with. Investing in our people is a dedicated practice here at Harris which is why we provide a diverse range of opportunities for any teacher, leader, or support staff to train, develop and grow.

Everyone here is highly talented, and everyone really cares. Everyone is really authentically motivated; no one is doing it for anything but the right reasons.

We offer flexible start and end times, and for most roles, have hybrid working in place with 3 days from the office, and 2 days from home. There will also be opportunities to visit the academies to see first-hand, the impact you're contributing to.
