Malone Integrated College is a grant maintained, integrated, co-educational,[3] multi-cultural and multi-ethnic secondary school, situated in south-west Belfast, Northern Ireland.

The school is situated next to Cranmore Integrated Primary School.

Context[]

Integrated Education is a Northern Ireland phenomenon, where traditionally schools were sectarian,[4] 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.[5]

Site[]

The site includes a new sports hall and 3G pitch.[6]

Food hygiene reinspection[]

Malone College was rated a one from the Food Standards Agency on their previous inspection, based on their rating scale of zero being the worst possible hygiene and five being the best possible hygiene, on 2 February 2018.[7][8] It has been cited in their report that the school required major improvement in management of food safety and some improvements required in facility cleanliness.[7]

The school has since been reinspected and has been rated a five by the FSA, indicating very good standards on hygienic food handling, cleanliness and management of food safety. The school was reinspected on 28 January 2019.[9]
