Principal's Welcome
Welcome to Our School
It is with great pride and excitement that I welcome you to our college, formed from the rich legacies of Saint Mary’s College, Clady, and Saint Paul’s College, Kilrea.
As the newly appointed Principal, I am honoured to lead this vibrant and forward-thinking community as we embark on a new chapter together. Our school stands on the strong foundations of two exceptional institutions, and we are privileged to carry forward their traditions of excellence in education, pastoral care, and community engagement.
We are a school that values academic achievement, personal growth, and the development of character. Our broad and balanced curriculum is designed to challenge and inspire, equipping pupils with the knowledge, skills, and confidence they need to thrive in an ever-changing world. We are dedicated to removing barriers to learning and fostering a culture where every child feels supported, motivated, and empowered to reach their full potential.
Beyond the classroom, our pupils will enjoy a rich and diverse programme of extra-curricular activities, sports, trips, and competitions. These experiences help build friendships, resilience, and leadership, and ensure that every child can discover and develop their unique talents.
As a Catholic school, our mission is rooted in faith, compassion, and service. Christ is at the heart of our community, and we work in close partnership with families, parishes, and the wider community to nurture the spiritual and moral development of our pupils. Through prayer, liturgy, Religious Education, and acts of charity, we encourage our young people to live out Gospel values and become active contributors to society.

In the spirit of our patron, Saint Conor, we are reminded:
“Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.”
This call to live with purpose, humility and service inspires all that we do.
Looking ahead, we are thrilled to share that plans are underway for a brand-new, state-of-the-art £41 million school building. This transformative investment will provide world-class facilities for teaching, learning, sport, and the arts—ensuring our pupils have access to an environment that matches the ambition and excellence of our educational vision. It is a once-in-a-generation opportunity that will shape the future of our school and community for years to come.
I invite you to explore our prospectus and discover the exciting opportunities that await your child at our college. Together, we will build a school that is reflective, ambitious, and united—a place where every child is known, valued, and inspired to succeed.
