Inspection and census in Mid and East Antrim

Mid and East Antrim is in Northern Ireland, where schools are inspected by the Education and Training Inspectorate. It publishes a report on each inspection: each school’s page links to its reports on the inspectorate’s site, with their findings in the inspectorate’s words where a report sums them up. The Department of Education publishes no exam results for individual schools.

The pupil counts are from the Department of Education’s school census of October 2025. Independent schools are not in the Department’s files and are not listed.
