    CHAPTER FIVE W.G.Conolly M.A., LL.D., 1893-1903 DR.CONOLLY’S APPOINTMENT The Board of Governors1, formed under the terms of the Scheme drawn up by the Education Endowment Commissioners, held its first meeting, with Lord Bangor in the Chair, on 4 September 1893. Its first task was the appointment of a Headmaster. There had been a large number of applicants for the post, four of which were short-listed: Dr.Conolly, Mr.Dodds, Mr.Maxwell and Mr.Osborne. Dr.Conolly was chosen by a considerable majority.2 William George Conolly was born in County Sligo in 1868, the son of Patrick Conolly a schoolteacher. He was educated at Coleraine Academical Institution and entered Trinity College Dublin on 11 October 1886, aged 18. He graduated B.A. in the summer of 1891, and LL.B. and LL.D. in the winter of 1893.3 He was also, ‘First High Placeman at Entrance, First Classical Sizar, Double Exhibitioner, Classical Scholar, First Honourman and Placeman, Moderator and Medallist at Degree Examinations’.4 In February 1899, Dr.Conolly told the Intermediate Education (Ireland) Commissioners that he had been Headmaster of ‘Bangor Grammar School’ for five years, and that he had formerly been Assistant Master in Coleraine Academical Institution for five months, and Assistant Master in Foyle College Derry for two years and eight months, which means that he began his teaching career before completing his B.A.5 He remained as Principal in Bangor until August 1903. THE LATE VICTORIAN AGE: BANGOR AND BEYOND On the world stage, science and technology took important steps forward during Dr.Conolly’s time in Bangor.

  • REMNI Foyle Flyers 2
    remembrance ni The Foyle Flyers In World War 1 a total of four hundred and ninety Old Boys of Foyle College, Londonderry, would answer the call to arms. Seventy two of their number would not return. Page !1 Amongst those who served were the Foyle Flyers, young men who were at the cutting edge of aviation in their time. Their involvement in this was often at a heavy price as the school war memorial and other memorials testify to. From motor sport to flying Leslie Vernon Lusington Porter was born on 12/05/1881 at Cullion in County Londonderry. He was a son of Captain David Leslie Porter (Royal Army Medical Corps) and Caroline Elizabeth Porter (nee Hamilton) who were married on 20 May 1879 in Glendermott Presbyterian Church Londonderry. They had three children: Henry (born 19 February 1880), Leslie (born 12 May 1881) and William (born 1 May 1882) Leslie Porter was just four years old when his father died in Egypt on 21 June 1885. Captain Porter had taken part in the expedition to relieve General Gordon at Khartoum. Leslie Porter moved from Cullion to King’s Road in Belfast and, with George Coombe, he founded the Northern Motor Company in 1899. Later he founded his own firm, Leslie Porter Ltd, Automobile Engineers and Agents. Page !2 Leslie Porter gained the reputation of being one of the most skilful motorists in Ireland and he was a prominent figure in motoring circles. He drove a Wolseley car in the 1903 Paris to Madrid motor race and his passenger Willie Nixon died when the car crashed.

  • Progress Update Report – November 2019
    Statement of Progress Progress Update Report – November 2019 August 2019 1 Programme Progress Report for Strategic Growth Partnership 2 Action Leads Context: In order to progress achievement of the shared outcomes identified in the Strategic Growth Plan (Community Plan) Outcome Delivery Plans have been agreed and taken forward by community planning partners. The Outcome Delivery Plans are live and evolving documents, subject to ongoing review, and will be performance managed through the identification and monitoring of performance level measures. In order to assist in management of these plans, it has been agreed to identify a partner organisation to undertake the role of ‘Action Lead’ for each individual action. Role of Action Lead: An ‘Action Lead’ does not and, indeed, could not have sole responsibility for achievement of an action. Community planning actions, by their nature, will depend on the active contribution of a number of partners to ensure their successful delivery. An Action Lead will, however, have a significant interest in ensuring the success of the related community planning action which is highly likely to be closely linked to the remit of their own organisation. The nature of the role will, primarily, relate to co-ordinating and reporting. Key Responsibilities: 1. Co-ordinate the contributions of identified partners to define and agree the performance accountability scorecard for each action, including agreeing performance measures and the involvement of each identified partner towards the action 2. Report to the Community Planning Partnership on progress using the identified performance measures 3. Where appropriate, ensure obligations in relation to statutory processes are undertaken, e.g., rural proofing.

Abstract Northern Ireland has achieved political stability and its devolved government is now tackling public policy issues neglected during periods of sectarian violence. Notwithstanding the prevailing political optimism, one legacy of the conflict is a deeply divided society. This is particularly manifest in the education system where around 90% of children attend either state (Controlled) schools (de facto Protestant) or Catholic (Maintained) schools, with integrated schools accounting for less than 6% of the school population.
