WELCOME FROM THE HEADTEACHER

Meet the Headteacher

 

It is truly a privilege to be Headteacher at St Benet Biscop Catholic Academy. At St Benet Biscop we believe that every individual, made in the image of God, has the right to achieve their potential and to Rise up and Shine.

​

It is important to us that our students have a full and rounded educational experience, with many opportunities to experience awe and wonder in the world, and to develop personally, morally and spiritually.  Our experienced staff and pastoral team support this and as a community we work together to ensure that every child is nurtured, has a sense of belonging, significance and values and reaches their potential.

 

The development of values shapes our student's character, to live out these values in positive daily actions through stewardship and this expands beyond school and the local community. Our RISE values run through all aspects of school life at St Benet Biscop.

​

Respect
St Benet Biscop students are respectful and kind and celebrate the uniqueness of each individual, acting to make a positive difference in the lives of others. We have respect for self, for others and keep each other safe.

​

Resilience
St Benet Biscop students ‘stick at it’ remain positive and have the strength to persevere.
We see mistakes as opportunities to learn and show resilience.  Students challenge themselves to do it better next time seeing mistakes as opportunities to learn.

​

Integrity
St Benet Biscop students are truthful and honest in all areas of life, living out their values.
When faced with tough decisions and hard choices, they do the right thing, even when it’s difficult or when no-one is looking. They give their word and keep promises.

​

Self-Discipline
St Benet Biscop students follow the rules; first time, every time. They are respectful and kind to all members of our school community and its visitors. In and outside of lessons they positively encourage each other to learn.

​

Excellence
St Benet Biscop students work hard and have high expectations striving for excellence in all they do.   They are determined to get better and understand that the journey is as important as the destination. We celebrate effort and excellence through our culture of rewards.

​

Visiting us, and meeting our students and staff is the best way to see these values lived out. If you would like to visit our school, please contact the school reception to book a tour of the school and experience life at St Benet Biscop Catholic Academy.
