About Us Harris Academy Beckenham is a happy, energetic and all-inclusive 11-18 academy which is widely recognised as one of the most successful and highest performing schools in Bromley.
We retained our 'Outstanding' judgement in May 2023 following our previous 'Outstanding' inspection in June 2017.
We are one of 52 schools in the country to retain this judgment.
The academy is oversubscribed with 1,500 applicants applying each year for 180 places.
The academy has a reputation of excellence, high standards of discipline and behaviour and a proven track record of academic success with outcomes significantly above national averages across all measures.
In 2019 we were designated as a 'World Class' school because of the amazing work we do to develop students' skills, character and competencies which rival and compete with those students from the very best schools internationally.
We have since been re-accredited in 2022, confirmation that our Academy is, and continues to be, World Class.
"I have been here 12 years and I really would not work anywhere else.
Our students are amazing - they want to learn and do well which encourages all teachers to ensure high achievement is the norm.
This is a really special school to work in and be a part of."
