Saint Patrick’s College, Banbridge are delighted with their results for the second year running!

The students from St. Patrick's College were very happy with their A Level results.  The vast majority have achieved A, B, and C grades and have been successfully placed in their first choice for next year.  Some of our pupils have benefitted from the collaborative courses on offer within the Banbridge Area Learning Community.  These proved very successful and we are thankful to our neighbouring schools for their provision for our students.

Pictured are some of our successful students, Ellen McArdle, Caolan McEwan and Carl McCusker and Saint Patrick’s College Vice Principal, Mrs Roisin Woods.

Their focus has been on raising standards at GCSE with particular attention being paid to GCSE English and Maths.  They are now among the top five non-selective schools in Northern Ireland.

They remain at least 20% above the Northern Ireland average for non-selective schools, five GCSE’s A*-C including English and Maths.  They are also significantly above the Northern Ireland average for non-selective schools achieving five GCSE’s A*-C.

“We have tailored our curriculum to meet the needs of every pupil and the school endeavours to ensure that the pupil is central to the education process.  We are a self-evaluating school, constantly seeking to improve the learning experiences of our pupils.”, says Mrs Mallon.

“Our school motto is ‘Excellence through Partnership’, and that partnership of parent- pupil-teacher is the root of our success.”
