"Some Positives, But Room for Improvement"

Our experience of St Benedict's has been mixed. We've been pleased with the school's approach to pastoral care and the opportunities for our child to participate in sports and music. However, we've found the communication from teachers to be inconsistent at times and the workload can be heavy.
