This Linen Hall exhibition tells the inspirational story of All Children Together, the parent-led, grassroots campaign group formed in the early 1970s that in 1981 went on to open Lagan College, the first planned integrated school in Northern Ireland.

 

It details some of the challenges and opposition faced by proponents of integrated education and highlights the organisations and individuals who helped to shape the sector by opening or transforming schools throughout the 1980s and 1990s. By tracing developments up to the present day, the exhibition reflects on the origins, legacy, impact, and place of integrated education within Northern Ireland’s education system.
