Which grammar schools use SEAG results?
Answered by Sam Stirling, former P7 teacher · Last checked: 30 October 2026
The short answer
Every post-primary school in Northern Ireland that uses academic selection for its Year 8 places is a SEAG member and accepts SEAG results: 63 schools in all. SEAG publishes their names on its Member Schools page.
Not only grammar schools
SEAG's members include controlled and voluntary grammar schools, and integrated schools that select some of their Year 8 intake by academic ability. The member schools also act as SEAG's Assessment Centres.
The full list
SEAG keeps the list on its Member Schools page.
How each school uses the result
Each school's Board of Governors decides how it uses SEAG results in its admissions criteria. The lowest score each school took last year is on the results page, school by school.
