Clounagh Junior High School is a community based comprehensive school on the Brownstown Road, Portadown, Northern Ireland. It accepts male and female pupils following primary education. Generally, children attend for three years (from ages 11–14); however those with special educational needs stay for an extra two years. After the children leave they are generally transferred to either Portadown College or Craigavon Senior High School. It follows Craigavon two-tier system, commonly called the Dickson Plan, which was established approximately 50 years ago because many people recognised that making crucial decisions about a child's future at the age of 10 was inappropriate. The current school principal is Trevor Canning, formerly Senior Vice-Principal. In 2005 he succeeded Norman Dickson following the retirement of the latter. The school is responsible for a lot of charity work and hosts many activities involving young students such as bun sales and reading marathons. ==School Facilities== Subjects such as geography, history and english have miscellaneous classrooms throughout the school. There are 17 subjects taught at the school (maths, english, physics, biology, chemistry, art, L.L.W., P.E., games, french, german, spanish, geography, history, home economics, I.C.T., religious education and technology) which are served by approximately 40 classrooms. The school's Art Department is one of the largest and best funded in Northern Ireland. Sports facilities include two rugby/football pitches, two all-weather pitches, two long jump sand pits and a concrete throwing circle for shot put events. There is also a dedicated indoors sports hall which can be converted to a basket ball court when needed. Although sport plays a key role in the schools extracurricular activities, there are a number of other activities which include but are not limited to: film, art, computers, library, choir and the school play (every other year). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Clounagh Junior High School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
