Please visit and explore our website at your convenience: omaghhighschool.org.uk Omagh High School is an OUTSTANDING school, (ETI 2013).
It was the first controlled school in Northern Ireland to be awarded this prestigious accolade back in 2013 and has retained this status since. In our most recent Sustaining Improvement Inspection (May 2019), Omagh High School once again demonstrated the high levels of education and care offered to all our young people.
According to ETI, “In the areas inspected, the quality of education provided by this school is outstanding; the quality of pastoral care is also outstanding. The school has demonstrated its capacity for sustained self-improvement.”
Outstanding care and education is at the heart of what we do!
Omagh High School is one of a kind. It is a pioneer in various methods of teaching and learning, ready to accommodate the variety of learners coming through our doors daily. Our pupils make great progress and they become independent learners, equipped with skills that are essential to succeed in a very challenging post-academic environment.
Omagh High School has a very strong academic track record.
Our academic offer is exactly the same broad and balanced curriculum as the selective grammar schools in Northern Ireland. We all follow the statutory NI curriculum after all. In OHS pupils are streamed according to ability for their subjects.
Our examination results are consistently amongst the best for similar schools across Northern Ireland. We consistently achieve results considerably in excess of the average for Northern Ireland both at GCSE and AS/A2 Level. All our pupils are encouraged to strive for better, to aim for higher and we believe that with high quality teaching, hard work and the support of parents, great things are achieved daily.
Everything we do here aims to promote the working and social ethic of our pupils. All our staff have the expertise and drive to assist your child along this journey of achievement.
