About Harper Green School
About Harper Green School
Harper Green School is a co-educational comprehensive located in Bolton. It was first established in 1927, and we are looking forward to the upcoming centennial celebrations. Our school has approximately 1250 students aged 11-16, making it noticeably larger than the average secondary school. The school site has seen extensive redevelopment and modernisation since its founding, and boasts a range of modern teaching facilities. The most recent of these being our B block – which houses a state of the art Dance studio, Drama studio, 3 modern classrooms and Humanities and Learning Hub department areas.
I am proud to be Headteacher of a school which truly serves its local community. We are a values driven school and there is a moral purpose to working at Harper Green, where we strive to transform the lives of our young people.
If this sounds like the type of school you could contribute to, then I would love to receive an application from you.

Values and ethos
Our core values are:

Harper Green School is committed to providing educational and cultural capital opportunity for all students, regardless of background or academic ability. We achieve through our ambitious, well sequenced curriculums (including PSHRE), a plethora of enrichment opportunities and appropriate careers support across all year groups.

WE ARE HARPER
“Discovering dreams, achieving aspirations, transforming lives”
For students, our values are to:

We are HARPER and this is how we do it here is central to our third value of do the right thing. Our HARPER attributes are to be: Honest, Accepting, Respectful, Proud, Engaged and Resilient.
As a school there are four main areas that want all our students to take responsibility for. Our aim is to make each individual central to their own education and support them in making positive choices and through doing so our students will become more committed, independent and resilient.
Learning – We are inspired to achieve through engaging and challenging lessons within a broad and balanced curriculum.
Personal Development – We believe that it is our responsibility to discover and nurture our unique talents through the “We are HARPER” attributes.
Experience – We endeavour to be confident and resilient and believe we can achieve this by challenging ourselves daily through new experiences.
Community – We recognise the positive differences we can make in society and how this can only be achieved through working together.
