Committed to improving the life chances of all children
Where we have the capacity to make a difference we are morally bound to do so.
We understand that our pupils are the future of our community. Therefore, everything we do at Benedict Academy strives to ensure that each child is successful; better placed to make knowledge-informed decisions about their future, and that of the world.
Very proud of our Nursery and Reception thespians, who told the Nativity story to avidly-listening parents and carers today! ⭐️ pic.twitter.com/6hP1zdBiCy— Benedict Academy (@BenedictAcad) December 17, 2024
