Welcome to our school website. We hope it will answer all your questions and help you to understand the rich and varied experiences we offer to the children in our care.

St Benedict’s is a one-form entry primary school nestled in beautiful surroundings in the town of Handforth. We are a welcoming, inclusive family school with a strong Catholic ethos, a sense of community and a commitment to excellence for all children in our care.
​
We are very proud of our children – they are bright, energetic, kind and helpful and always strive to do their best for the love of God and others.

The team of staff all work hard in partnership with supportive and engaged parents and alongside the parish of St Benedict’s, to nurture children and to ensure they receive an excellent catholic education.

Our curriculum is broad and balanced and we strive to ensure all children achieve their potential in a kind and caring atmosphere. We do this by nurturing each child’s uniqueness in the image and likeness of God and responding to individual needs. We want each child to be successful in their learning and to make a meaningful contribution to the world.
​
You are warmly welcomed to come and visit us and see our school in action.

Kind Regards,
Hannah McGuire
Head Teacher
