Harris Clapham Sixth Formers are amazing: Students’ behaviour is impeccable. Students attend well, work hard in lessons and are polite in their interactions with peers, staff and other adults.

We liked this: Leaders have a clear vision for the curriculum they offer which is designed to help young people from areas of deprivation to gain the skills, character qualities and qualifications that they need to succeed in adult life.

The Library

Much like writer Caitlin Moran, we believe that libraries are ‘cathedrals of the mind; hospitals of the soul; theme parks of the imagination’ and we hope that our students will come to see our warm, welcoming and inspiring library as such.  

We think the library is the beating heart of our academy. It houses an exciting and growing collection of extraordinary books that encapsulate - to paraphrase the poet Matthew Arnold - the best which has been thought and said. We emphatically believe that reading, whether for study or for pleasure is at the heart of learning and thinking well. 

We encourage students to use the library to read and study throughout the day, in addition to before and after school.   

Resources include: 

  • A carefully curated non-fiction print selection that is designed to support academic study and encourage wider reading 

  • A vibrant, diverse and inclusive print selection of fiction that covers many genres 

  • Electronic resources accessible via the library website both in and outside of school 

  • A library catalogue where the full holdings of the library can be searched 

  • Laptops for students to use within the library as well as the school computers.

  • A dedicated silent study space providing an academic, focused environment.
