Sanders Draper School

Sanders Draper is a mixed-gender secondary school for students aged between 11 and 16 located in Hornchurch, London Borough of Havering, UK.

In September 2018 Mr Brooks took over as Headteacher and the school joined Success For All Educational Trust (SFAET) and so worked in partnership with Redden Court and Royal Liberty.

The school reverted to its historic name of Sanders Draper in September 2021, this followed the drive for this from Headteacher Mr Brooks and Success For All Educational Trust.

[2] On 24 March 1943, an American volunteer with the RAF, Flying Officer Raimund Sanders Draper deliberately crashed his Spitfire to avoiding hitting the school, after engine failure on take-off from RAF Hornchurch.

There was full support from the local community and ex students for this change which is part of the introduction of a new House system which celebrates Havering heroes and the school's rich history.
