Sperrin College goes for gold!
SPERRIN College in Magherafelt has scooped the prestigious Gold Award from the UK wide organisation Heads, Teachers and Industry (HTI).
The award is presented to schools who have achieved outstanding performances in innovation and creativity.

This award recognises the hard work that all staff, governors, parents and pupils have put into the development of the school. And it comes as Sperrin College celebrates its ten year anniversary.
Mrs Hunter and Mrs Heron, both Vice Principals at Sperrin travelled to London recently to receive the award which was presented by Dr David Armstrong, Consulting Partner of Pricewaterhouse Coopers and Mr Mike Giddings, Chief Executive of HTI.
