First Class Honours

Any worthwhile school should be able to claim good exam results but few can claim to prepare their sixth formers for higher education more effectively than Ballycastle High School.

In the past three years we have learned that Roisin McGinn, Michael Kashkoush, Sharon McCaw and Brian McKaig had gained First Class Honours Degrees in English, Robotics and Artificial Intelligence, Biology and History respectively.

To this impressive list we must now add Karen McCaughan who gained a First Class Honours Degree with Commendation in Business and Human Resource Management from the University of Ulster. Karen also gained the Prize as top student in Business Studies.

Linda Simpson also gained a First Class Honours Degree in Business Studies with Education this time from Queens University. Linda also won the Vere Foster Medal for producing the most distinguished set of examination answers.
