Harris Academy Purley (formerly ''Haling Manor High School'') is an Academy secondary school in South Croydon, England. Haling Manor High School was one of only fifteen schools in the country to be awarded specialist status as a music school. ==History== Before becoming an 'Academy' the school was named Haling Manor High School. There were two 'wings' to the school for many years: Pampisford Wing which was originally South Croydon Boys Technical School; and the Kendra Wing which was originally South Croydon Secondary Modern School. Origins went further back to what was Wadden Secondary School. (There was a famous entry in the punishment book from that era: 'X' received 6 strokes of the cane for letting off a paper bag during an air raid' - cited by Michael Round, previously Headmaster) The first Headteacher of Haling Manor was a Mr. Fox (not to be confused with Richard Fox, Head of Science and Senior Master who spent his entire career at the school) and the first Deputy Head was Mr. Piper. Michael Round replaced Mr Fox and was Headmaster 1975-1996 (21 years). His then Deputy, John Troake, took over as an equally successful Head succeeded by Esther Bauman, until August 2009 when the school was passed to the Harris Foundation. Up until 31 August 2009, the school was a comprehensive Secondary High School. From 1 September 2009, it became part of the Harris Federation of schools, and was renamed to ''Harris Academy Purley'', under the leadership of Carol-Anne Alcock. Mrs Alcock had previously been the headteacher at Selsdon High School. The school is situated in South Croydon, not Purley. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Harris Academy Purley」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
