Admissions

Admission to Year 8

Transfer Procedure/SEAG Transfer to 2024/25 school year

(for pupils starting P7 in September 2023)

Sullivan Upper School uses the Schools Entrance Assessment Group (SEAG).  SEAG is open to all post-primary schools in Northern Ireland which use academic selection for all or part of their Year 8 intake. SEAG includes Controlled and Voluntary Grammar Schools and Integrated Schools in its membership.

Test Centre

Sullivan Upper School will be a test centre and children are accommodated in the main school halls.  A familiarisation day is held prior to the actual assessments so that children can experience and become familiar with their surroundings and can meet the supervising staff. 

Familiarisation

We are looking forward to welcoming the children taking their tests at Sullivan Upper to a Familiarisation evening on Tuesday 17 October 2023.  Children should arrive from 4.45 pm for a 5.15 pm start.
