The Inspectorate is also conducting a similar exercise in the youth service in 1998-99. I should like to acknowledge the co-operation of the schools and colleges visited by the inspectors, the young people with whom discussions took place, and the Health Promotion Agency whose work in the field of drug education helped determine the focus of the survey. I hope that the findings of this report will provide a baseline against which all of those involved in the planning and delivery of drug education and pastoral care, in post-primary schools and colleges, may evaluate the quality and extent of their own provision and plan for future developments. T J SHAW Chief Inspector A number of quantitative terms are used in the report to comment on aspects of drug education in the schools visited.

    POST-PRIMARY INSPECTION Coleraine Grammar School, County Londonderry Education and Training Voluntary, selective, co-educational 11-19 school Inspectorate Report of a Follow-up Inspection (Involving Action Short of Strike) in September 2018 FOLLOW-UP TO THE INSPECTION OF COLERAINE GRAMMAR SCHOOL, COUNTY LONDONDERRY, BT51 3LA (342-0317) The Education and Training Inspectorate (ETI) carried out an inspection of Coleraine Grammar School in November 20161 which concluded that the school needed to address important areas for improvement in the interest of all the learners. The area for improvement identified in the inspection was the need to raise the standards the pupils attain, particularly through: • improving the consistency in the quality of all aspects of learning and teaching; • improving the out-workings of monitoring and evaluation, including the action planning and use of data, so that it impacts positively on pupil experiences and outcomes; and • improving the quality of communication across the school. During the inspection the quality of the provision in English, mathematics and careers education, information, advice and guidance (CEIAG) were evaluated as having important areas for improvement. The school’s post-inspection action plans identified key actions to bring about the necessary improvements and were adjusted appropriately in light of feedback given by the ETI. The progress being made in the areas for improvement was discussed with the school in an interim follow-up inspection visit (IFUV) carried out by the ETI on 5 February 2018. The IFUV was impacted by action short of strike. A follow-up inspection was carried out in September 2018. In the interval since the initial inspection the school received support from the Education Authority (EA) on action planning for middle leaders.

  • 2021 CGS Prospectus.Pdf
    COLERAINE GRAMMAR SCHOOL In Scientia Opportunitas Welcome Coleraine Grammar School is now in its sixth year having opened for pupils in September 2015. The school is building on, and enhancing, the excellent education provided previously by Coleraine High School and Coleraine Academical Institution. The men and women who founded CAI and CHS had a vision for the education of boys and girls in this area, and that vision stood the test of time for 150 years. We are now developing a new vision for academically excellent coeducation in Coleraine in the 21st century. Our core purpose is to provide a broad, varied and appropriate curriculum, supported by high quality teaching and learning and pastoral care. This is enhanced further by a wide range of extra-curricular activities in music, sports, arts, drama and many other areas. You will read about our provision in this prospectus and please also take some time to view the on-line presentations on our Virtual Open Night website (CGSOpenNight.com). In particular, please listen to the pupils’ interviews about their experiences of our school, both in and out of the classroom, and how these experiences have helped the pupils develop holistically. We have an experienced pastoral team in CGS and a structure designed to ensure that we are a child-centred school, which is able to address the needs of individual pupils. Effective leadership is a priority at all levels in school and we are continuing to strengthen the many existing links our school has with the community. We are building an academically excellent school, with appropriate pastoral support available to all pupils.
