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.

Photos from Strabane Academy's post 🥁🏆 PUPIL SUCCESS 🏆🥁
Huge congratulations to Year 9 pupil Alice on an incredible start to her drumming journey! 👏
Alice took up tenor drumming with Bready Ulster Scots Pipe Band in October 2025, graduating to drums before hitting the competition circuit in May 2026.
What a few months it has been! 🤩 In August alone, Alice has not only secured an Ulster title, but on Saturday she celebrated becoming a World Champion with the band! 🌎🏆
Alice plays alongside our own Year 12 student Bobby, who was also part of the World Championship-winning band. What an achievement for them both! 👏🥁
Alice truly embodies our ASPIRE behaviours. Not only is she developing her own skills, she is always happy to give back, volunteering as a runner for the Royal Scottish Pipe Band Association Northern Ireland and helping local competitions run smoothly.
A fantastic achievement, Alice, we are incredibly proud of you! 💙
