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

Photos from Strabane Academy's post A huge thank you to all of our Year 11 and Year 13 pupils and parents who attended our induction sessions as our pupils begin the next exciting stages of their educational journeys! 👏📚
The transition into Key Stage 4 and Key Stage 5 brings new opportunities, challenges and expectations. Success doesn’t happen by accident, it is built through good habits, hard work, organisation and consistency. 💪
By working together as pupils, parents and school, we can provide the support, encouragement and challenge needed to help every young person fulfil their potential.
Here’s to building positive habits, setting high expectations and making the most of every opportunity throughout the year ahead! 🚀

Photos from Strabane Academy's post What an excellent morning for our 2026–27 Prefects and Pupil Leadership Team! 🙌
Our fantastic group have been completing their OCN Level 2 Leadership Training, expertly facilitated by Barney from REACH Across Derry/Londonderry.
The engagement, enthusiasm and participation from our pupils throughout the morning has been outstanding. ⭐ Barney even commented on just how excellent our team of young people are — praise we are incredibly proud to hear! 👏
A brilliant start to their leadership journey, and we can’t wait to see the positive impact they will have across Strabane Academy this year! 💙

Photos from Strabane Academy's post 🌟 A wonderful start to the day at Strabane Academy as we welcomed the next generation of pupils through our doors! Looking fantastic in their crisp new uniforms, our newest students arrived full of excitement and ready to begin an exciting new chapter.
It was lovely to see so many smiles from both pupils and proud parents, creating a warm and positive atmosphere from the very start. 😊
Our pastoral team was on hand to welcome everyone, help settle those first-day nerves, and ensure every pupil got off to the best possible start. We are delighted to have them with us and are excited to support them throughout what promises to be a fantastic year ahead.
Here's to new friendships, new opportunities, and a year filled with success, growth, and unforgettable memories. Welcome to Strabane Academy! 🎉📚✨
