About
The Marion Centre was founded to create lasting, transformative change in our community through education. We offer a unique and vital learning experience tailored to the needs of people in our community and beyond. At the heart of our work is a belief that education is not only a pathway to knowledge but also a powerful tool for healing, self-discovery, and renewed purpose.
Our programmes are designed to support individuals experiencing mental health challenges, helping them reconnect with a sense of identity and direction. By combining targeted education, coaching, mentoring, and wellbeing-focused training, we equip learners with the skills and confidence to rebuild their lives.
We don’t just aim to impact individuals — we aim to spark generational change. By supporting mental wellness through education, The Marion Centre fosters resilience and personal growth that reaches far beyond the classroom.
Location
The Marion Centre of Excellence is based in the newly renovated St Comgall's School on the Falls Road , Belfast. It was set up as a social enterprise to provide skills for employment for people who find it hard to pursue the career they wish to do as they are unable to gain the skills. This can have an impact on their physical, social and emotional health and they may also suffer long term unemployment. We want to break this cycle and respond to the need for change and see the Marion Centre of Excellence as a catalyst of change.
The Marion Centre of Excellence was set up by highly motivated educational leaders with over 20 years experience delivering educational excellence through people both locally and abroad.
We are passionate about empowering students and have a strong student centred vision. We are effective mentors who build high performing and engaging lessons and have a proven track record of successfully managing change within education.
