Principal's
Welcome

Welcome to Strabane Academy

It was Aristotle who said that, “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence is not an act, but a habit.”

Within these pages we have tried to capture something of the spirit of school life and convey the sense of pride we feel in being part of this community. As you view our website, look out for the many opportunities that we provide which help students develop positive habits for life.

It may be how we extend learning beyond the classroom; through sports, Languages, Duke of Edinburgh, opportunities to travel abroad, practical life skills such as wood working and the culinary arts, work-based learning, leadership opportunities and the school council all of these are enriching on many levels.

CELEBRATING PUPIL SUCCESS 🤩
A huge well done to our Year 13 pupils, Lewis & Lauren, on their recent success in being accepted onto a QUB Pathway Opportunity Programme!
