Insights from Year 8

“When I came to Integrated College Glengormley I was scared of starting in the new school, however after a couple of weeks it all changed.  Integrated College Glengormley is a friendly place for everyone from all religions, races and political views, that is why ICG is a great school.  I highly recommend this school to any P7 pupils.”

Esme Shore, Our Lady of Lourdes Primary School

“Before I started at Integrated College Glengormley, I was a little unsure of what to expect.  Going into Year 8 I had so many things I wanted to know about the school.  I was a little nervous on my first day but that soon changed as my Form Tutor made me feel so welcome, I also made new friends on my first day which really helped me to settle in.  My favourite subject is PE as I am a very sporty person.  I play football and I am looking forward to trying new sports including Hockey and Rugby.”

Lara Longridge, Kings Park Primary School

Kadie Doak, Malvern Primary School

Moving from such a small school to a pretty big school was a little scary.  I got lost a few times at the start but, very soon, it was really easy to find my way around and make new friends.

Integrated College Glengormley has been very welcoming to me, the teachers were kind on the first day.  I am really enjoying all of the different subjects and my favourites are PE and Technology.  I like moving around in school and not being in one class all day.

My experience within Integrated College Glengormley has been fun so far.  All of the teachers are kind and thoughtful.  I prefer my new school to my primary school.  I have fun here, I loved the summer scheme and I have made great friends – they are so kind.  I love Spanish and Science.
