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 Our Year 13 students recently took part in a highly informative and productive UCAS Day, designed to help them begin preparing for their post-18 pathways and university applications.
A special thank you to Mrs McColgan for organising and hosting such an insightful and well-structured day. Her hard work and dedication ensured that our students left feeling informed, motivated, and better prepared for the opportunities ahead.
We look forward to supporting our Year 13 students as they continue their UCAS journey.

Huge congratulations to Sophie and Jody (Year 9) on their fantastic fundraising achievement! 🎉
Through their creativity and hard work during Anti-Bullying Week, they made and sold beautiful friendship bracelets, treat bags, and crocheted hair accessories, raising an incredible £105 for The Koram Centre, Strabane. 💙
A special thank you also to Adrian from The Koram Centre for taking the time to visit the school today to meet the girls and hear all about their wonderful efforts, it is greatly appreciated.

Photos from Strabane Academy's post What a fantastic morning at Strabane Primary School today! Our Anti-Bullying Ambassador team did a brilliant job facilitating a kindness workshop with Year 4 and 5. From the outset, pupils were fully engaged, showing great enthusiasm as they took part in activities like the Kindness Chain and Kindness Bloom Boom.
It was wonderful to see such positivity, teamwork, and thoughtful reflection throughout the session. A huge well done to our ABA team for delivering such an impactful workshop, and to the pupils for embracing the message so wholeheartedly.
Remember, in a world where you can be anything, be kind. 💙

Photos from Strabane Academy's post Our Pupil Leadership Team enjoyed a fantastic team-building morning on Friday, expertly facilitated by Mr Sargent. The session provided a great opportunity to develop teamwork, communication and leadership skills while having plenty of fun along the way.
To top off an excellent morning, everyone got the chance to make their own pizzas – a well-earned treat after all their hard work! 🍕
A huge thank you to Mr Sargent for leading the session and to all of our pupil leaders for their enthusiasm, participation and positive attitude throughout. We are incredibly fortunate to have such a dedicated, supportive and talented group of young people representing our school.
What a great team we have!
