WORKING WITH US
We are a 3 form entry primary school from Reception to Year 6, which also includes a 52 place Nursery. Harris Primary Academy Chafford Hundred (HPACH) is a successful academy that was judged outstanding in every category in our October 2018 Ofsted inspection.
We are a sister school to Harris Primary Academy Mayflower and Harris Academy Chafford Hundred, along with other Academies in the Harris Federation. We work closely together, sharing best practices and leadership knowledge to make education outstanding. Our core belief is that children thrive when they feel happy and safe at school, encapsulated in our vision: "Excellence, Every child, Every day."
Our core values—Kindness, Resilience, Respect, Responsibility, and Community—underpin everything we do. We expect all adults, children, and staff to model and respect these values both inside and outside the academy.
Our dedicated team is committed to developing confident, creative learners who leave prepared for secondary education and beyond. We celebrate our children’s diversity and achievements, whether in academics, sports, or extracurricular activities.
At HPACH, we strive to ensure every child recognizes their potential, leading to outstanding outcomes and a safe, caring environment where children are excited to learn and grow.
