"Happy with the School"

As a parent, it's great to see my child thriving at Harris Academy Orpington. The values of the school align with our family's, and the staff are approachable and supportive. My child enjoys the football team and the Bromley League matches. We're grateful for the holiday club places and the free activities for FSM families.

"Excellent Education and Support"

I've been amazed by the progress of my child at Harris Academy Orpington. The teachers are knowledgeable, and the pastoral care is outstanding. My child has benefited from the half-term masterclasses and the support during GCSE resit exams. The facilities are impressive, and the open mornings have given me a glimpse into their wonderful activities.

"Mixed Feelings"

My child attended Harris Academy Orpington for a few years, and while we had some great experiences, there were also challenges. The facilities are indeed excellent, and the science department is outstanding. However, the communication between teachers and parents could be improved. I'm grateful for the support during GCSE resit exams, but we faced some difficulties with the pastoral care.
