We would like to inform our school community that a Principal Designate has been appointed to lead Lecale Trinity Grammar School.
Dr Moore has over thirty years’ experience in post-primary education as a Mathematics teacher, Head of Department, Vice Principal in two schools and is currently the Principal of St Patrick’s High School in Keady.
St Patrick’s High School, a large, Lasallian school, is a successful, all-ability, co-educational 11-19, school. It also has specialist provision for learning. Dr Moore’s outstanding leadership in Keady, over the last five years, has been characterised by positive, collaborative relationships with pupils, Governors, staff, parents, and a diverse range of stakeholders. She has actively built and sustained supportive relationships which have promoted quality learning and teaching and excellent pastoral care in a school grounded in a Lasallian value system.
Dr Moore was Vice-Principal of St Paul’s Junior High School in Lurgan for twelve years until it was amalgamated successfully with two other schools and became St Ronan’s College. Dr Moore then was Vice-Principal in St Ronan’s College for three years and was also Acting Principal for four months. During this time, she was actively involved in the establishment of St Ronan’s College, which is now one of the largest all-ability, grammar schools in Northern Ireland. In this key leadership role, Dr Moore successfully promoted a shared vision and culture which engaged the support of the whole school community.
Dr Moore is, in her own words, committed to the pursuit of excellence through the promotion of high quality learning and teaching in an inclusive climate, where learning is relevant and enjoyable. She also stressed that it will be her privilege to lead Lecale Trinity Grammar School as Principal, and to work in partnership with pupils, parents, staff and the wider community to ensure that every young person achieves their full potential and holistic development in a school with a strong, child-centred, Catholic value system.
We would like to wish Dr Moore success and happiness in her new leadership role. We will look forward to working with her.
