Harris Academy Purley

We offer a range of extra-curricular sports clubs that are open to all year groups. These clubs meet for weekly training sessions and regularly play competitive matches against local schools.

Clubs are an important strand in the Academy's wider curriculum. Students have access to a variety of clubs before school, during their lunch break and after school. We use a system called SOCS to monitor students' attendance to clubs and issue rewards to those with exceptional participation.

Through a DofE programme young people have fun, make friends, improve their self-esteem and build confidence. They gain essential skills and attributes for work and life such as resilience, problem-solving, team-working, communication and drive, enhancing CVs and uni and job applications. Top employers recognise the work-ready skills Award holders bring to their business.
