Harris Academy Peckham Catchment Area Information
What is the catchment area for Harris Academy Peckham?
The catchment area for Harris Academy Peckham is the geographic zone Southwark uses to prioritise admissions when this secondary school receives more applications than it has places.

Southwark publishes the exact boundary and the last distance offered before each admissions cycle, and the boundary can change year to year.
As an academy, Harris Academy Peckham sets its own admissions criteria, agreed with Southwark. The catchment area boundary is defined in the school's annual admissions policy, which may differ from the LA's general school admissions arrangements.
The official admissions policy, including the catchment boundary map, is published by Southwark before each admissions cycle. Always verify your address with the council before submitting an application, as boundaries can change year to year.
