Saint Benedict's College was a catholic secondary school and sixth form college located in Garston, Liverpool. The school was coeducational from years 7 to 11 and included sixth form.〔http://www.saintbenedicts.co.uk/www/〕 Saint Benedict's College was opened in 1955 under the name 'Blessed John Almond' in recognition of local martyr John Almond who was an Allerton resident. In 1971 it was renamed Saint John Almond, this followed John Almond being made a Saint by Pope John Paul II. In 2005 it was decided by the Governors to rebrand the school in an effort to improve public perception of John Almond. The new name of Saint Benedict's College was chosen and from September that year the school was fully rebranded including a new blue uniform and new badge. This did greatly improve the public image of the school, and from this point on reports from OFSTED improved, along with GCSE results. Under the Governments "Building Schools for the Future" programme all secondary schools in the UK were due to be rebuilt over the next 10 years. As part of Liverpool City Council plans for the city, it was decided that Saint Benedict's College and New Heys Community School would both close and be replaced by a new Business and Enterprise specialist academy on the Saint Benedict's site. These plans were given central Government approval in February 2010. The Enterprise South Liverpool Academy opened on 1 September 2010 on both sites until a new purpose built academy is constructed on the Saint Bendedict's site, due for completion in 2012. == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「St Benedict's College」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
