About Harris Primary Academy Peckham Park

Harris Primary Academy Peckham Park is a state primary school in Southwark that currently educates 274 pupils, well below its capacity of 420. The school serves a community with a high level of disadvantage: 54.1% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, significantly above the national average. Demand for places is strong — for the 2025/26 intake, the school received 65 applications for just 18 places, with all 18 first-preference applicants offered a spot, giving an oversubscription ratio of 3.61 applicants per place. This suggests a school that is popular locally despite not being full overall, likely because the nursery provision feeds into Reception. Headteacher Layla Mahlojian leads a mixed-gender, non-religious school for children aged 3 to 11, and the most recent Ofsted inspection in 2024 judged it to remain Good with an improving trajectory.
