Welcome

Welcome to Wellington College

Thank you for taking the time to look at the College Website. This year we celebrate the twentieth anniversary of Wellington College. The information you will find here will give you an insight into the life of the College and what we offer our pupils as they prepare for the future. We are immensely proud of our pupils and their achievements during their time with us.

In October 2008 the Education and Training Inspectorate carried out an inspection of the College. We were delighted by the ETI endorsements within the report of the high standards and quailty of work within the College. The College continues its commitment to providing a high quality service to our young people.

The report highlighted:

  • Positive attitudes, good behaviour and motivated responses of the pupils.
  • Quality of the teaching which, in most lessons observed was good and, in a majority of lessons was very good or better.
  • Very good arrangements for pastoral care.
  • Professionalism and commitment of the staff to the life and work of the school.
  • Improved standards in public examinations at GCSE level.
  • Clear direction and leadership provided by the Principal and Senior Leadership Team.

We strive in Wellington to provide a rich and rewarding learning environment for our pupils encouraging not only academic achievement but also personal development in sport, music, drama and other wide ranging extra curricular activities.

Whilst this is a time of uncertainty in post primary education in Northern Ireland we believe that the College offers a traditional academic programme delivered using modern means which allows our young people to flourish and achieve their potential.

Take time to read about the way we do things at Wellington. If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact us.
