Context
Integrated Education is a Northern Ireland phenomenon, where traditionally schools were sectarian,[2] either run as Catholic schools or Protestant schools. On as parental request, a school could apply to 'transition' to become Grant Maintained offering 30% of the school places to students from the minority community. Lagan College was the first integrated school to open in 1981.[3]
History
Many pupils transferred from the Armagh Integrated College when it closed in 2009.

The college has been enhanced with a new £2.3m sports hall. It was designed by Mc Adam Design architects and delivered by Woodvale Construction. The site has an accredited 3G pitch.[4]
