The Harris Federation
THE HARRIS FEDERATION (Interview: 22/10/14) A case study showing a large multi-academy trust (MAT) with a cluster-based organisational structure. The central board set the overall direction for the Trust and local governing bodies are responsible for the day-to-day governance of schools. Background The Harris Federation was founded by Lord Harris of Peckham when, in 2003, Lord Harris approached Sir Dan Moynihan, an outstanding headteacher, to lead the city technology college in Crystal Palace. Sir Dan quickly transformed the school, receiving an ‘outstanding’ rating in 2004. Due to this success and the desire to improve the educational standards for more students, the Harris Federation took on two more failing schools in the area and turned them into academies. After establishing a MAT structure in 2006, the Trust now governs 35 schools in close geographical proximity across London comprising primaries, secondaries a sixth- form college and a pupil referral unit. After growing to five schools, it became apparent that Sir Dan could no longer be the full time head of just one school and he was made the permanent Chief Executive of the Harris Federation. Harris’ vision is to achieve the best possible outcomes for students within their schools and they do this through a tight geographical model. Structure Initially (during 2004/5), each academy existed as a part of its own trust with an overseeing central board and members. However, in 2006 Harris moved to a MAT structure and has grown steadily since. They introduced two subcommittees from the main board; finance and general purposes, and audit as well as giving Local Governing Bodies (LGBs) the power to run clusters of schools. -
Harris Federation
Harris Federation The academy schools movement is increasingly dominated by chains. These self-styled ‘charities’ are in reality ‘edu-businesses’ paying fat cat salaries to their CEOs, developing corporate branding and seeking aggressive expansion in the education ‘market’. This briefing looks at the Harris Federation. The Harris Federation is a key player amongst academy chains and has played a leading role in developing academy policies since they were introduced by New Labour. Harris Federation have several well established schools. The Federation is named after Lord Phillip Harris of Peckham, one of the richest men in Britain who has a personal fortune of £275 million and runs the Carpetright chain of carpet stores. Harris is a member of the Tory Party and has many large donations including to several leading figures. The Harris Federation currently runs 13 academies, 1 of which is a primary school and has 2 more in development. 2 primary schools, which Michael Gove has declared are ‘underperforming’, are to be forced to become academies with Harris identified as a sponsor. Harris also has 2 ‘free’ schools in development, one in Tottenham, North London. Parents, staff, governors and the head opposed Downhills Primary being forced to become an academy. Gove sacked the governors and has made Harris the preferred sponsor. Harris boast that the “Harris Federation has a performance record in terms of improvement in examination results combined with numbers of outstanding Academies which is unmatched by any Academy group in the country.” We are happy to acknowledge the success of Harris where it is due but it is important to look more closely behind the spin. -

Do Well and Doubt Not Issue 1 a Fanzine for Tottenham
Issue 1 Do Well and Doubt Not A Fanzine For Tottenham B: Shabelle Fax & Photocopy Services Issue 1 Do Well and Doubt Not is a fanzine about Tottenham, in the words of the people that live here. The name comes from the discarded town motto, displayed for all to see on a coat of arms in the old Town Hall. Tottenham is an area of London that has had more than its fair share of headlines over the years. A lot of people just don’t know the good things about it. The fanzine is here to start a wider conversation about the positives of Tottenham, and to challenge the bad. It’s also just the beginning; there are many more people we simply couldn’t fit in this time. For Tottenham A Fanzine The interviews in this fanzine are taken directly from conversations with people that live and work in the area, the people that know it best. Sometimes these conversations were recorded during walks through the area; sometimes we journeyed through Tottenham metaphorically, with the kettle on, sheltering from the rain outside. Do Well and Doubt Not Doubt and Do Well Shortly after the riots of 2011 there was a piece written by Kieran Long (in the Evening Standard) that stated “now is the time for a new approach to the city that doesn’t use the euphemisms of regeneration, but deals with the city in its dirty reality.” Do Well and Doubt Not is an attempt to start this dialogue, to question and to inquire. Cities are complex, frustrating, and compelling; they are things of beauty. -
