Harris Academy South Norwood is an extremely popular 11-19 academy that has been judged Outstanding by OFSTED since 2010. We deliver a broad and challenging curriculum to all our students in a calm and well ordered environment. We have high expectations of all members of the school community. This is reflected in our consistently high student performance at GCSE, progression to post 16 study at our sixth form and then on to some of the best universities in the country. Harris academy South Norwood is split over two campuses: Clocktower Campus in Cumberlow Avenue, South Norwood, and Beulah Hill Campus in Spurgeon Road, Upper Norwood. Each campus has its own Principal, Leadership Team, Teachers and support staff. This means each child is well known and supported in a caring and supportive environment by staff that will really get to know them.
Both offer the same broad and balanced curriculum, but each campus does have a distinctive character.
