Principal’s Welcome

WELCOME TO ST. JOSEPH’S COLLEGE

On behalf of our Governors, Staff and Pupils, I would like to extend a very warm welcome to all the families who are considering St. Joseph’s as the school of choice for their child’s post primary education. We are an all-ability, inclusive, 11-19, non-selective, co-educational, Catholic College. St Joseph’s College opened its doors in September 1992 and we are proud to celebrate over 30 years in Education. The school is going from strength to strength, in terms of our examination performance. Alongside that success, we have been awarded many awards including the Investors in People Health & Wellbeing Award, gained the Green Flag by becoming an eco-friendlier environment, we are now a School of Sanctuary and we were chosen to receive the Down & Connor “Spirit of Catholic Education Award”. St Joseph’s has a warm, welcoming ethos and we pride ourselves on the strength of the relationships that exist at all levels throughout the College. You will pick up on the care and compassion the staff have for pupils and their determination and passion to achieve the best possible successes for your child. We instil in our pupils the self-belief that they can achieve whatever they put their minds to in our school. We reflect the fullness of humanity. We value diversity, we value inclusion, we value achievement but above all we value all the young people of this community. I look forward to welcoming you to our school community.

Michele McCormick, Principal
