A Lurgan College student has certainly made his mark on the newly formed Controlled Schools' Support Council (CSSC).

Josh McAvoy, a Sixth Form student, from Lurgan College, has won a competition to design a logo for the new organisation.

For winning the competition he received a graphics tablet for himself, as well as £1,000 of technology for his school.

The competition involved Key Stage 4 and Key Stage 5 students from member schools, who were invited to design a logo to be used by the Council.

Josh’s logo will be central to the development of CSSC’s branding

The talented college student said: “I am absolutely thrilled that my logo was chosen by the Council.

“While I considered other potential, more esoteric designs, I was very conscious of the clear criteria set down by the Council in relation to the logo – simple and easily reproduced.

“What I came up in the end was something which I felt symbolised both learning and success, encapsulated in the mortar board effect with its geometric design.
