I am delighted to welcome you to our website, which hopefully gives you some information about Magherafelt High School.

Conveniently situated in the town of Magherafelt, we are a non-selective, co-educational 11-18 Post Primary school with a current enrolment of 600 pupils.  Our pupils transfer from a wide range of feeder primary schools and a significant number travel to school on public transport.

We pride ourselves on meeting the needs of each and every pupil and challenging them to be the best that they can be.  This is reflected in our school motto:

"Aspiring to the success of the individual".

We believe that every student deserves the highest standards in education.  With enthusiastic, dedicated staff and state of the art facilities, Magherafelt High School has become the first choice for aspirational pupils who want to succeed academically and socially.

We are delighted to mark the 100 year anniversary by planting a tree, kindly donated by Laurel Garden Centre, Magherafelt.  Students also collected items for a time capsule, hoping that in 100 years, future generations of Magherafelt High School could dig it up and see what life was like in 2021. 

We are very proud to present to you our Virtual Open Day 2021. Please click on the link below to access the video presentation. Magherafelt High has so much to offer and we hope that this video gives you a flavour of life at our school. If you would like further information or would like to speak to the Principal or a member of Staff please contact the school office.  Please click here to view the School Prospectus.
