St Benedict's
Catholic School

"I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full"

An inclusive Catholic Community where great learners are educated to reach a fullness of life through growth, mastery and teamwork.

St Benedict's is a comprehensive secondary school of about 900 pupils aged from 11 to 18 years, serving both the Catholic and non-Catholic communities of West Suffolk and Thetford.

We are a high achieving, caring, learning community with a distinctive Catholic ethos. This enables us to underpin everything we do with our core values of Faith, Respect, Service, Responsibility, Justice and Compassion. We welcome children from all backgrounds, abilities, faiths and those of no faith. We are an excellent school with a fabulous sixth form of which we are very proud.
