There are seven schools in the federation which span over three London boroughs including the London Borough of Croydon, London Borough of Southwark and the London Borough of Merton. The schools major sponsor is the Lord Harris of Peckham. The federation is a not for profit charitable organisation whose key aim is "to promote the education of young people in South London". Unusually in education, the Harris Federation represents an attempt to develop a distinctive 'brand' in education.

Lord Harris is also the sponsor of a group of 6 specialist secondary schools and 4 specialist primary schools in the South London area. The Chief Executive Officer is Dr Daniel Moynihan previously Principal of Harris Academy Crystal Palace.

The federation has recently opened a new Academy based on the site of the former Westwood Technology College. This from September 2008 will be known as the Harris Academy Falconwood.
