Welcome to our Academy
An academy rooted in our local communities and committed to their success
I am proud to lead a school rooted in our local communities of Clapham, Brixton and Streatham. We are a school that understands its families and is deeply invested in the community’s success. Many of our staff live locally too, so we combine genuine community knowledge with the resources and opportunities the Harris Federation can provide. David Astin, Executive Principal
