We know that great education starts with great teachers. To mark International Day of Education, we asked some of our teaching staff, what qualities make an excellent teacher? This video highlights the passion, dedication, and empathy that drives the transformative power of education at Harris every day. To all of our incredible teachers, thank you for making such an incredible difference to some of the most disadvantaged communities across London and Essex.

Since the pandemic, absence rates have soared, with persistent absenteeism on the rise. Research highlights the significant impact of missed school days on educational outcomes, particularly for disadvantaged students. At the Harris Federation, we’re taking action. Our new Home-Academy Liaison Officer (HALO) role is transforming how we support persistently absent students and their families. By focusing on long-term reintegration and building trust, our HALOs are helping students overcome barriers to attendance. From addressing sleep routines to resolving housing challenges, their work is already making a measurable difference. Attendance at Harris Science Academy East London has increased from 89% to 94%, and at Harris Academy Bermondsey, it’s up to 95% which are figures not seen since before the pandemic.

High Support High Challenge 💎💙 The theme for our inset day. Today was the beginning of a journey to strengthen our HACH circle culture, where every member of staff assumes positive intent when receiving feedback, a culture where giving feedback, regardless of our job role, means we are being a good colleague and a culture that will maintain our status as a high performing organisation. We focussed on our toxins, our strengths, our blind spots, methods of effective & ineffective communication and where we sit within our departments and within the HACH circle using C-Me colour preferences. I want to build on the fantastic culture we already have by providing staff the time to reflect on how they react, receive and give feedback- we are no ordinary school, we work hard on the right things to ensure that we develop ourselves as staff, therefore impacting children’s opportunities to compete in the world. We don’t just get held to account by our leaders, we all hold each other to account!
