Welcome to Harris Academy Battersea

A very warm welcome to Harris Academy Battersea.

Developing our young people both academically and personally is at the heart of everything we do at Harris Academy Battersea.

Equally, we wish for our school and young people to serve the community and be a school that the community is proud to have on its doorstep. The values embody the qualities we expect to see in our young people.

Employed

I went to Harris Academy Battersea before heading to Queen Mary University of London, where I studied Creative Computing. I’ve always been fascinated by how technology and creativity come together, whether it’s through web development, software engineering, or even quantum computing. I love the challenge of solving problems and finding new ways to make technology more intuitive and engaging.

University

I went to Harris Academy Battersea for my A-Levels, where I earned myself 4 A*s before heading to Imperial College London to study Physics. I was part of the first-generation of my family to go on to higher education, so going to university was an important goal for me. While maths and science had always interested me, I realised by true passion for it through being curious and engaging in as many opportunities as I could outside of school. Those experiences allowed me to explore areas of science you don’t usually get to cover in school and ultimately led me to where I am today.

University

I attended Harris Academy Battersea, where I achieved five A*s, and then went on to study Artificial Intelligence and Decision Making at MIT. From a young age, I was always fascinated by how AI can change society-both the good and the bad. That curiosity took me down a path where I’ve explored everything from AI privacy to building AI-powered tools for education.
