It is with great pride that I welcome you to our school website. I am truly honoured to serve as the new Principal of Strabane Academy.

I hope that as you explore these pages, you gain a clear sense of our commitment to the holistic development of every student in our care.

At Strabane Academy we offer a broad and balanced curriculum designed to nurture the unique strengths and talents of each individual pupil. Beyond the classroom, our students benefit from the wide range of enriching opportunities - from sports and music to educational visits, Scripture Union, and the Duke of Edinburgh Award scheme, to name just a few.

What's Happening

Photos from Strabane Academy's post First league game for our u12 hockey team away to Castlederg HS this afternoon. A rainy start didn’t dampen the girls spirits as they were on the front foot from the whistle. Plenty of confident play through the midfield to the forwards resulting in several well worked attacks. The girls supported and encouraged each other throughout with the final result being a 4-0 win for Strabane Academy. Well done girls! 🏑
