Drapers' Academy is a secondary school for girls and boys, from years 7 to 13 sixth form with academy status, located in Harold Hill near Romford, Greater London, England. It was the first academy to be established in the London Borough of Havering.
It was established in September 2010 under the joint sponsorship of the Drapers' Company and Queen Mary, University of London.[1] It is located on the site of the former King's Wood School.[2] Its future was thrown into doubt on 7 July 2010 by the government's announcement of cuts to the national school building programme, but after reconsideration was given approval on 6 August.[3]
