St Benedict’s is a non-selective, all ability, co-educational Catholic College that is committed to delivering excellence for all. We mainly serve families from the parishes of Antrim, Duneane and Randalstown.  Our Mission Statement makes it clear that our role is to work in partnership with home and community to enable our students to be happy, safe and successful.

 

We have high standards for all and are committed to the delivery of academic excellence. This can be seen in our excellent examination results at GCSE. We provide a broad, balanced, and relevant curriculum which meets the varied needs and aspirations of our students. Through our curriculum offer and delivery we ensure that all our students are positively engaged in their learning and are empowered to reach their full potential. Students are also given the opportunity to develop, deepen and refine their knowledge, skills and personal capabilities. As an 11 to 16 provider, we ensure our students are provided with clear curriculum pathways to Post 16 study, training or employment.

We pride ourselves on the excellent Pastoral Care delivered in the College. Our students are at the centre of everything we do. We have high expectations and aspirations for all our students, and we challenge, nurture, and support our young people to learn and to achieve. We strive to develop our student’s self-esteem and self-belief through the development of positive and respectful relationships. Our dedicated, experienced, and hardworking staff work tirelessly to remove any barriers to children’s learning and success.

 

St Benedict’s offers an extensive range of extra-curricular activities and enrichment opportunities. All of which aim to discover and nurture individual student’s talents and abilities. They provide students with opportunities to build friendships and experience new things.

 

Like all good schools our best advocates and exponents are our students. They will assure you that our college, is a school where everyone is included and valued, where standards and expectations of all are high and where everyone is afforded opportunities to achieve and enjoy success.
