I am delighted that you are interested in finding out about our school and hope that the information in this booklet and in the parents’ booklet answers some of the questions that you may have about becoming a pupil at Belfast High School. Our pupils feel safe and are very happy here. They thrive in the supportive, aspirational and inclusive environment we offer which helps each of them to fulfil their true potential and achieve success. Our parents also tell us that they are pleased with the very high standards in all aspects of school life as well as the wealth of opportunities on offer. Belfast High School has a long, successful and proud history. We are called Belfast High School as the school was founded in 1854 by Mr John Pyper on a site near Carlisle Circus in Belfast. The school moved to its current location at Ardilea House in Jordanstown just over 50 years ago. Our beautiful 32-acre site overlooks the Loughshore and is next door to the University of Ulster. In addition to the main school buildings, you will be able to use the on-site state-of-the-art sports hall, drama studio, strength and conditioning/fitness suite and Astroturf pitch which were completed in June 2016. We cherish the tradition and family values on which our school is built while also being innovative and forward-looking in all that we do. I hope that you have the opportunity to get a flavour of the friendly and caring atmosphere here, see for yourself the positive relationships between teachers and pupils which are evident both inside the classroom and through extra- curricular activities. I wish you success with your AQE test results and hope to see many of you here in September 2019. Rest assured that if you join us at age 11 you will leave 7 years later as a happy, confident, articulate, well-rounded individual and with a group of life-long friends. I hope you and your family enjoy your visit to our school this morning.

  • Briefing Notes for Education Committee 15 October 2014 Colin
    Briefing Notes for Education Committee 15th October 2014 Colin Knox and Vani Borooah Definitions Difference between shared education and integrated education: Shared Education Shared Education encompasses a number of different types of sharing, from projects and shared classes through to shared education models, such as those defined in the Bain report (eg: Federations/Confederations; Shared Campus and Shared Faith schools). Under Article 64 (1) of The Education Reform (NI) Order 1989, integrated education is defined as “the education together at school of Protestant and Roman Catholic pupils (Minister of Education) The Terms of Reference for the Ministerial Advisory Group on Advancing Shared Education defined Shared Education as: The organisation and delivery of education so that it: meets the needs of, and provides for the education together of, learners from all Section 75 categories and socio-economic status; involves schools and other education providers of differing ownership, sectoral identity and ethos, management type or governance arrangements; and delivers educational benefits to learners, promotes the efficient and effective use of resources, and promotes equality of opportunity, good relations, equality of identity, respect for diversity and community cohesion (MAG Report) By its nature, Shared Education involves more than one school type. This view has been endorsed by the Ministerial Advisory Group, which further refined the definition to “...involves two or more schools or other education institutions from different sectors

We live in a world that is constantly changing – when will Brexit happen, will Brexit happen, and what will the consequences be. Most of us use technology that even a few years ago would have seemed beyond our imagination and if we stop to think for a moment what the world will look like in 2026 when our current Year 8 pupils finish their time in Belfast High School it can become a little frightening. It is therefore more important than ever that we continue to provide our pupils with the best possible education both in the classroom and through the many and varied extra-curricular activities which Belfast High School provides, and I hope as you read this report you will be inspired as we celebrate many of the achievements of our pupils over the past year. As well as constant change all schools continue to operate under severe financial pressure and we would like to thank all the staff for their commitment to the school in these challenging times and their continuing desire to provide our pupils with the best possible opportunity for them to reach their full potential and their aspiration to instil in each pupil the determination to strive in all activities, academic and otherwise, to achieve his or her own level of excellence.

  • Ulster Schools Athletics Champions 1949-2020
    Ulster Schools Athletics Champions 1949-2020 While inter school athletics was a regular feature of the summer term in schools in the North of Ireland after partition it was not until four years after the SeCond World War, in 1949, that the Ulster Grammar Schools held the first official Championships. These were, of Course, a male only preserve Covering three age groups and were dominated by a small number of schools Contesting 24 individual events of which Royal Belfast Academical Institution won 8 and Methodist College Belfast 6. By 1955 twenty four schools had entered the fray and the same year sixteen schools, nine from Belfast, took part in the inaugural Ulster Grammar Schools for Girls at the Queens University Sport Ground at Cherryvale. Co-incidentally it was the same year that the North of Ireland Womens Athletics Association held their first Championships. Competition was limited to 13 individual events, the longest of which was 220 yards. The throws were Confined to the Javelin for Seniors and the Cricket Ball for the two younger age groups. The first Cricket Ball Champion Bridget Robinson would go on to represent Northern Ireland in the Commonwealth Games in the Javelin. By 1967 the Championships had increased in popularity with 33 Grammar Schools represented in the Boy’s Championships. That year there were two Championship meetings held one designated the Ulster Grammar Schools and the other the Ulster SeCondary Schools although it has to be said that few athletes from non Grammar schools made much of an impact. The year 1968 will go down in history as the most significant in the history of school’s athletics in Ulster as it saw the Coming together of all of the separate organisations to form the Ulster SeCondary Schools Athletics Association catering for all boys and girls in Post Primary Education in Ulster.

  • A Third Evaluation Report on the Specialist Schools' Programme
    The Education and Training Inspectorate A Third Evaluation Report on The Specialist Schools’ Programme 2009-2010 CONTENTS Section Page 1. BACKGROUND 1 2. SUMMARY OF MAIN FINDINGS 3 3. CONCLUSION 7 ANNEX 1 ANNEX 2 1. BACKGROUND 1.1 The Department of Education (the Department) set up the specialist schools’ pilot project to commence from September 2006 with the four aims that the schools would: identify and build on their particular curricular strengths; by sharing good practice, secure whole school development; contribute to the development of good leadership in schools; and take forward a community dimension, such as with other schools, Further Education (FE) colleges, business and industry and the wider community. 1.2 The stated core objectives of the project were to: provide opportunities for pupils to benefit from wider learning experiences and to ensure maximum impact of the available expertise and resources, by promoting co-operation and collaboration among schools and between schools and other providers of education and training for 14-19 year-olds; provide parents with greater choice among a range of schools, which have differing areas of focus; raise standards and realise performance improvement for all young people; and develop links between schools, their local communities and the economy to ensure that all young people are given a strong foundation for lifelong learning and work. 1.3 Furthermore, the Department intended that school improvement through self-evaluation and the application of aspects of an existing curricular strength as a whole school development process would be at the heart of the specialist school concept. The Department stated that it was important that the range of specialisms selected, including vocational and applied areas, would enable schools to be innovative and to develop strengths that are relevant to the emergent needs of Northern Ireland as well as the needs of the pupils in the local area served by the school1.

Last year in my introduction I commented that we lived in a world that is constantly changing, little did I know just how much our world would change in the last few months of the academic year and the impact the coronavirus pandemic would have in all areas of our lives and especially in the education of our children. The report shows some of the highlights of our pupils’ achievements over the past year in both academic results and a very wide range of extra-curricular activities and the Board thanks all staff members for their commitment to the school which allows our pupils to strive to achieve their full potential. We acknowledge the very strong academic performances by our pupils in a year when examinations did not take place for the first time in living memory. At A Level 97% of pupils achieved 3 A*-C grades and at GCSE 93% achieved a minimum of 7 passes at A*-C.

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.

  • Vision, Mission, Strategic Aims & Values
    Vision, Mission, Strategic Aims & Values Summary of Consultation Responses September 2018 Northern Ireland Local Government Officers’ Superannuation Committee Summary of Consultation Responses 1 Background 1.1 NILGOSC is the administering body for the Local Government Pension Scheme (LGPS) in Northern Ireland. NILGOSC was set up by the Government in April 1950 to operate a pension scheme for local councils and other similar bodies in Northern Ireland. The pension scheme is known as the Local Government Pension Scheme (Northern Ireland) and is a defined benefit scheme. The pension scheme is funded by contributions paid by both employees and the scheme employers. 1.2 NILGOSC’s role is to administer the LGPS Regulations, both in terms of pension scheme administration, including the calculation and payment of benefits, and the management of the investment fund. The Regulations are made by the Department of the Environment and, while NILGOSC will respond actively to any consultation process, it does not have any power to change the regulations or determine their content. In this respect, NILGOSC’s remit is relatively limited with its function being to deliver a pension service to scheme members and employing authorities. Within this narrowly defined function, the focus continues to be on providing a high quality service to all stakeholders, in line with their continually evolving expectations. 1.3 Like most organisations, NILGOSC has established a strategic planning process which allows it to identify and achieve its long term strategic objectives. A key part of this process is the triennial strategic review, during which the organisation’s vision, mission, values and strategic aims are subjected to a thorough review and stakeholder consultation to ensure that they remain relevant and reflective of the current operating environment.
