- St Catherine's College Armagh
Saint Catherine's College is a girls' non-selective Catholic all-ability school catering for the 11-18 age group and is associated with the international group of schools served by the Society of the Sacred Heart.
It was formed in 1973 when the existing Convent of the Sacred Heart Grammar and Secondary Schools were re-organised on a comprehensive basis to provide secondary education for all the Catholic girls of the greater Armagh area.
Saint Catherine's College is situated on a 30 acre site off the Convent Road in Armagh and the existing school buildings have been refurbished and upgraded to ensure the provision of the most modern technological and sporting facilities. A £1.5million building programme has recently been completed with the construction of a new five classroom Information and Communication Technology building. New facilities have also been added to the Irish Medium Unit.
The school caters for the full range of ability and comprises: Key Stage 3 (Years 8, 9 and 10) - located in the main school building, Key Stage 4 (Years 11 and 12) - located in the Barat Building (off Nursery Road) and Sixth Form (Years 13 and 14).
