Harlington School is a Foundation secondary school and sixth form located in Hayes, London, England. The School recently went through a change in logo (changing from two yellow pillars and seven small red dots in a line in the center resembling a H, to two white pillars and three coloured stripes running through the middle - Blue for Da Vinci House, Yellow for Brunel House and Red for Mandela House), and name(removing 'Community' from the school name, becoming Harlington School). To fit with the new school branding, a new website was launched using the colours found in the new school Logo. The newly designed website was made by The Mustard Agency

The houses are designed to unite the students and form a community of love, trust and team work.

The intention is not only to increase their physical abilities but allow them to enjoy themselves after a year of hard work.
