A VISION OF SUCCESS Lagan College is recognised as a centre of success. We want to continue building on our excellent reputation. Our school buildings include a Sports Hall, Sixth Form Centre, specialist accommodation for Art and Music and general classrooms. Our students are being educated in state of the art accommodation, successfully preparing for the world of work in the 21st Century. The legacy of the troubles and issues of division and sectarianism concern everyone who is interested in the future of their children. Our young people, who will be the future leaders and citizens, are ones for whom sectarianism is an alien way of thinking and behaving. Our school ethos holds dear the values of reconciliation, service, respect and equality. Through increased contact with Europe and the rest of the world, Lagan College students can see the positive values of their own community in a wider context. They are highly regarded by employers, universities and colleges, both for their academic achievement and for their personal qualities, which an integrated education enhances.

Top performing students were Rosa McCloskey, Jude Hines, Clodagh Magee and Ben Lewis. The college achieved 80% 3 or more A*-C out- comes which was our best ever, benchmarked against pre covid figures.
