Harper Green School has continued to make significant strides over the past year, from academic success to ongoing upgrades to its facilities. The school's commitment to providing a nurturing and ambitious learning environment is reflected in its numerous achievements and improvements.

This year, the school community came together for a memorable GCSE Results Day, celebrating another year of exceptional academic accomplishments. The outstanding results highlight the hard work and dedication of both students and staff, underscoring the school’s commitment to academic excellence and its ability to support students in reaching their full potential.

Beyond academic success, Harper Green School offers a comprehensive personal development programme that prepares students for the challenges and opportunities of the wider world. The school’s extensive enrichment activities, including the prestigious Duke of Edinburgh Award scheme, allow students to explore their interests and develop talents beyond the classroom. Additionally, educational visits and career opportunities equip students with valuable life skills and a deeper understanding of their future roles in the community.

Ofsted has recognised Harper Green School's commitment to a well-organised and ambitious curriculum, praising the school's rigorous approach to education. Inspectors noted that the curriculum is carefully designed to meet the needs of all students, including those with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), ensuring every student has the opportunity to succeed.
