Welcome from the Principal

It is my privilege to welcome you to our Enniskillen Royal Grammar School community, a school community built on strong relationships, high expectations, and a deep commitment to nurturing every young person. At the heart of our vision is the desire to make Enniskillen Royal Grammar School a centre of excellence where each pupil is known and valued as an individual and where they are both challenged and supported in equal measure as they grow in confidence, character, and capability. Our school motto Perstare et Praestare ( to persevere and excel) encapsulates this vision well.

Engagement is central to meaningful learning. Our broad and balanced curriculum aims to inspire curiosity, independence of thought, and an interest in the world around us. Through a rich range of curricular, co-curricular, and extracurricular learning experiences, we want pupils to enjoy their learning, to experience success, and to feel motivated to contribute positively to their community.

Resilience is central to preparing young people for an ever-changing world. We work to create an environment where pupils learn to persevere, adapt, and grow through challenge. With the support of dedicated staff, pupils are encouraged to reach, and exceed, their potential, developing into resourceful and confident young adults.

Growth, in its fullest sense, is at the heart of our aims. We nurture pupils academically, socially, emotionally, and physically, encouraging them to understand themselves, build strong character, and develop values such as respect, tolerance, and responsibility. A Christian ethos informs the life of our school, and we warmly welcome pupils and staff of all faiths and of none as we work together to create a compassionate and reflective community.

Support is woven into every aspect of life at Enniskillen Royal Grammar School. We want every member of our community to feel safe, respected, and listened to. Strong relationships, open communication, and close partnerships with parents and guardians guide our pastoral approach as we aim to ensure that pupils know that help and encouragement are always available.

Engagement, Resilience, Growth, and Support sit at the centre of our vision for a vibrant and purposeful ERGS community. Rooted in our proud heritage, we are also outward and forward looking in our aspirations and we strive to ensure that our pupils are well-prepared for the future through strong partnerships with local, regional and national organisations.

I warmly invite you to learn more about Enniskillen Royal Grammar School—a community grounded in excellence, enriched by opportunity, and shaped by strong relationships. Our website highlights our pupils’ achievements and provides a range of information such as our school prospectus and details of our Sixth Form provision. Please feel free to contact me at school if you would like to discuss anything further or arrange a visit. Perstare et Praestare

Elizabeth Armstrong
Principal

Year I left: 2020

Subjects: Geography, Biology and English Literature

As part of the first full GCSE cohort of the school, I left ERGS on a random day in March 2020. Our formal was cancelled and we all expected to be back after a couple of weeks — but we all know what happened next.

I knew the COVID-19 pandemic was going to ruin the typical “freshers” experience, so I deferred my place at Newcastle University to work in my local SPAR for a year. I was sad seeing all my friends leave, but I built up money and work experience that helped open doors for me in the future.

I’d recommend Newcastle to any student. I made some amazing memories and left with a First Class BSc in Environmental Science with Placement, along with an award for the best dissertation in my year.

My placement year was spent as an Assistant Geo-Environmental Consultant at Tetra Tech in Belfast. I worked on some really big projects, including the GeoEnergyNI demonstrator project - the first large-scale geothermal investigation of Northern Ireland.

I am currently studying a Master’s Degree in Forestry for Green Sustainable Development at Linnaeus University in Sweden. There are no tuition fees in Sweden for EU citizens or those with an Irish passport, so I think this is a pathway that should be promoted more often. I really love it over here and everything is taught in English, so don’t worry if your Swedish isn’t up to scratch!

Thank you to Mr Beddard for shouting at me to fix my deforestation homework. It turns out I’m quite good at talking about trees after all!
