Preparatory
Welcome from the Preparatory Head, Brendan Quinn
As Head of St Benedict’s Preparatory, it is my pleasure to welcome you to this exciting and invigorating section of our school. It is here that we strive to provide an environment where boys thrive to be the very best that they can be – a place where boys feel like they belong.
It is here that we constantly challenge ourselves to ensure that we deliver the right blend of education suited to the needs of each individual boy. This is done holistically through our core pillars of academics, sport, culture and religion. Traditional Christian values form the foundation of our educational practice, coupled with the continuous seeking of progress to deliver methodology based on the needs of the 21st century learner.
Not everyone thinks the same way. At St Benedict’s, this is not just understood – it is nurtured. The boys who pass through our classrooms and corridors are not afraid to be a light in this world.


We hope to establish and continuously maintain authentic relationships with boys, parents and staff in a nurturing environment where boys learn the value of self-discipline, within a guided context so that they may become the best version of themselves. We believe in having ‘serious fun’ and seek to seize each and every opportunity presented to us daily.
