25 July 2017Harris Academy Tottenham Celebrates Ofsted SuccessHarris Academy Tottenham has been rated ‘outstanding’ in all categories by Ofsted following its first inspection. Inspectors were impressed by the standard of teaching across all age ranges at our school. They said: “Teachers have excellent subject knowledge. Their enthusiasm for their subject is infectious, and this motivates pupils to want to achieve well.” “The school’s leaders have created a culture which is firmly underpinned by the school’s values: ‘Endeavour, enjoy and excel.’” “Teaching is very well planned in order to meet the needs of different pupil groups, including the most able.” “Pupils have a love of reading and are encouraged to read widely. This has had a positive impact on the quality of their written work and on their ability to communicate clearly in both written and spoken activities.” “The early years provision offers a calm environment in which children thrive.” “Students are happy in the sixth form and feel safe. They told inspectors that they receive excellent support and guidance. They demonstrate positive attitudes towards their studies.” Lisa Kattenhorn, Principal of Harris Academy Tottenham, said: I am so pleased that our academy’s ethos of excellence has been recognised by Ofsted. An ‘outstanding’ rating is a fantastic achievement, particularly for an all-through school. I would like to thank the whole school community – from our youngest primary pupils to our brilliant sixth formers, from parents to staff, governors and the Harris Federation – for their continued support as we grow year on year. It is because of their hard work and dedication that Harris Academy Tottenham is thriving. Read the full report here.

6 December 2018Year 10 Football Match against Gladesmore Y10 Match Report: HATO looked to build on an impressive start to the season in a game against local rivals Gladesmore on Thursday afternoon. A slow start from HATO almost proved costly as Gladesmore struck the post early on and dominated possession for the first 20 minutes. If it had not been for two excellent saves from Abdel then the away side would have conceded. HATO looked dangerous on the break, on one occasion Bradley skipped past five or six players but time and time again the team were not clinical enough. The second half was a huge improvement with HATO starting on the front foot and dictating play. The team’s latest addition, Jahrel, looked comfortable on the ball and his tenacity was nearly rewarded when he chased down a loose ball between the goalkeeper and centre-back, his effort poked narrowly wide. The headlines could have been so different with Nakyai inches away from a stunning bicycle kick and Bradley’s half volley striking the crossbar. A special mention goes to the HATO defence and Abdel who were excellent all game, especially Alexie who swept up every loose ball and won every tackle. However, the deadlock wasn’t to be broken and the points were shared. HATO’s first clean sheet of the season means they remain the only unbeaten team in the league and on course for a title challenge. Man of the Match – Alexie Brown
