Principal's
Welcome

Welcome to Strabane Academy!

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

🎉☀️ SCHOOL’S OUT FOR SUMMER! ☀️🎉
And just like that, another school year comes to a close.
What a year it has been! Filled with learning, achievement, laughter, challenges overcome, friendships strengthened, talents discovered, and countless opportunities for our young people to grow and succeed. We are incredibly proud of everything our students have accomplished and grateful to our dedicated staff, supportive parents, and wider school community who have helped make this year such a success.
As we close the chapter on the 2025–26 academic year, we would like to wish all members of our school community a fantastic summer break. Stay safe, relax, recharge, and enjoy, hopefully, with plenty of sunshine along the way! Whether your adventures take you near or far, make wonderful memories and enjoy every moment.
Our school calendar for the 2026–27 academic year is now available on our website, including Year 8, Year 11 and Year 13 induction days and times, as well as return-to-school dates September.
Our Principal, Mr Johnston, has also reflected on his first year in post. https://strabaneacademy.co.uk/Principal-s-Reflection-2025-26/
Thank you for being part of another memorable year at Strabane Academy.
Until then… over and out! 😎🌴☀️

Photos from Strabane Academy's post Our Italy group are now home safe and sound after a truly wonderful adventure! 🇮🇹✨ It was an action-packed trip with plenty of sightseeing, laughter, and thousands of steps along the way!
On the final day, we enjoyed some last-minute shopping in the beautiful coastal town of Sorrento, famous for its charming cobbled streets, colourful boutiques, stunning views across the Bay of Naples, and delicious local produce, including its world-renowned lemons. 🍋🛍️
We then visited the remarkable archaeological site of Herculaneum, the ancient Roman town buried by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79. Smaller and exceptionally well-preserved, Herculaneum offers an incredible glimpse into everyday Roman life, with its impressive villas, mosaics, frescoes and streets frozen in time.
A fantastic way to end an unforgettable trip, filled with amazing memories, wonderful company and experiences to treasure. Until the next adventure! ❤️🇮🇹

As another school year comes to a close, we’d like to take a moment to recognise the incredible staff who make our school such a special place. Their dedication, enthusiasm and care for our pupils every single day is truly appreciated.
This time of year also brings some goodbyes. We would like to thank Mr Bradshaw and Miss Keys (missing from photo) from our PE Department, along with Nicole, one of our Learning Support Assistants, for their hard work and commitment to our school community.
We wish each of them every success and happiness in the next chapter of their journey. Thank you for everything you have contributed, you will always be a valued part of our school family.
From everyone at Strabane Academy, we wish you all the very best for the future. 💙

Photos from Strabane Academy's post The Horticulture have had a very busy season with some great produce from all our hard working green fingers.
Today was a day for the first of the spuds!
Let’s just say the boys were looking forward to their dinner tonight.
No doubt it was delicious!
