Academy Ethos
It is our aim that children achieve two fundamental milestones whilst at Harris Primary Academy Purley Way:
• To develop a love for learning
• To fulfil their academic and social potential
Through a broad and balanced curriculum, our ambition is to inspire and support each child to understand and demonstrate our ‘Golden Rules’ of Showing Respect, Taking Responsibility and Making the Right Choices.
In their first year at school, children are taught to read, taught to write and taught to understand basic mathematical concepts. Our ethos is that “All children have the right to be safe, happy and respected so that they enjoy their learning and reach their full potential.”
