Teaching Assistant, HARRIS Academy Rainham

About Us

Harris Academy Rainham is a very popular and oversubscribed 11-16 academy which is part of the Harris Federation. We joined the Federation in September 2016 and there are exciting times ahead. We opened a Sixth Form for 400 students in September 2023 and are looking for ambitious and dedicated staff who wish to be a part of our Academy. At Harris Academy Rainham we have a dedicated group of staff who are deeply committed to serve our community.

We have built a school on our core values of Belong, believe, Become. These values are at the heart of our school and all that we do. What makes us different:
Our values are at the centre of our school and aren’t simply a slogan on a website. We have a firm but fair approach to behaviour. This is built on the use of consistent routines and teaching our students how to behave. We deliver a knowledge rich curriculum that is developed by our staff to meet the needs of our students.

The knowledge we teach takes our students beyond their everyday experiences and enables them to see the world differently. Our leaders are role models, they lead by example, admit mistakes, welcome opinions and love honest conversations. We are a staff united against educational disadvantage with a fierce determination to show our students the world beyond Havering. What we can do for you:
Great career progression both within our Academy and the Federation. Excellent professional development opportunities. As a Leading edge school we have been recognised as being at the forefront of educational thinking and research is central to all we do. Meaningful measures to manage workload – no graded observations, early finish on a Friday, no onerous marking requirements but sensible feedback policies.

Bespoke support and line management from excellent leaders across the school. Opportunities for fantastic professional growth as the school develops a sixth from. A school where subjects are ‘front and centre’ of all we do. The subject determines our pedagogy.
