Background

History

Holy Cross College opened in September 2004 following the amalgamation of Strabane's three Catholic post-primary schools, the Convent Grammar School, St Colman's High School and Our Lady of Mercy High School. It is a bilateral school which means it has both grammar and non-selective streams, with the two groups of students taught separately. The college's first principal was Sean Bradley. He was succeeded by Maria Doherty who took the job of principal after Christmas 2008. In turn, she was succeeded by Mrs Claire Bradley who took over as Principal in September 2018. She was then succeeded by Mrs Lisa McGuigan in 2022.
