Mr Nicholas Sheehan, Executive Principal of JIS shared: "Whilst these top performing students will leave JIS with superb academic results, they will be remembered even more for the significant impact they have made as young leaders in our school and the influence they have had on those around them. They have set an excellent example to the younger members of our community. These success stories would not have been possible without the unwavering support of their parents and the dedication of our Academic Team who, together with the teaching and pastoral staff, continue with a holistic approach to education to challenge and inspire students to strive for the best in all that they can.”
