A-LEVEL RESULTS - 2026

A massive congratulations to our Year 14 students receiving their A-Level and Vocational results today.
These results represent years of dedication, resilience, and hard work from an incredible group of young people. We are immensely proud not just of your academic achievements, but of the well-rounded young adults you have become.
 
Our Principal, Mrs. Scullion, shared:
"Our students results are a true testament to their hard work and determination. Today we celebrate their well-deserved success. I also want to extend my deepest thanks to our dedicated staff and supportive parents, who have guided them every step of the way."
 
KEY HIGHLIGHTS:
• 90% overall pass rate A*-C grades
• 74% of entries achieved A*-B grades
• 50% of all entries achieved A*-A grades
 
Our top performers for 2026 are Orla Kelly 2A* 2A, Clara-May Deighan 2A* A, Molly Higgins A* 2A, and Erin McGuiness A* 2A,
with brilliant results also from Dararose McElhinney 2A* B, and Grace McClune A* A B.
 
Many of our students will now accept places on courses including Mechanical Engineering, Optometry, Radiotherapy, Physiotherapy, Speech and Language Therapy, Psychology, Sociology, Teaching, Nursing, Computer Science, and Games Design at Universities including Queen’s University Belfast and the University of Ulster across its three campuses Derry, Coleraine, and Jordanstown. Others are embarking on Apprenticeships, moving straight into employment, or continuing their studies at FE Colleges. It is rewarding to see each of them pursuing the path that suits them best.
 
A special word of congratulations to our AS students who also received excellent results today, your hard work has paid off, which allows you to begin your A2 studies with confidence in your ability and further potential.

YR. 8 INDUCTION AND WELCOME

LEAVERS' MASS
We shared in the celebration of Mass to mark the end of compulsory education for our Yr. 12 students and
the end of school education for our Yr. 14 students.
 
Thank you to all parents and extended family members who joined us for Mass in the hall and refreshments afterwards in the canteen. 

LEAVERS' COLOUR RUN

We hosted our annual Leavers Colour Runs for Yr. 12 and Yr. 14 students marking the end of their school term,
serving as a much needed and well deserved break from study for their remaining public examinations.
 
An emotional week finished off with a much needed change of pace for everyone to share funny stories and memories gathered
over the past 5 and 7 years respectively, thank you all for such a fun time and engaging fully in the spirit of the event.

PUPUL OF THE MONTH

We operate a rewards system where staff upload points for pupils who have earned them. These points are collated at the end of each half-term, and rewards are presented at a special whole school assembly. We gather as a whole school community to celebrate the achievements of our pupils who had been awarded the top points in each year group and received a Gold, Silver, or Bronze award.

Staff upload points to the system on a daily basis for a huge range of reasons including, excellent responses to homework, participation in group work, reading out loud for the class, showing improvement in any aspect of school life, showing kindness, sharing, assisting staff and others, catching up on work while absent, making corrections to work, trying something new and many others too numerous to list.

We look for the small things that pupils might think go unnoticed and recognise their importance to the individual and highlight their benefit to the whole class - "Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in day out". (Robert Colier - Author).

Congratulations to all our recipients, and keep up the good work.
