About The Becket School
The Becket School sits within Nottinghamshire’s secondary landscape, a Roman Catholic mixed state school in the Rushcliffe borough. Among the 46 secondary schools in the local authority, it competes with a strong set of peers: Rushcliffe Spencer Academy, The West Bridgford School, and Carlton le Willows Academy are the top-ranked same-type schools nearby, with The West Bridgford School just 1.4 kilometres away and holding an Outstanding Ofsted rating. Becket itself has been rated Good in its most recent inspection, a solid standing in a county where only three schools overall have achieved the top grade. Headteacher Paul Greig leads a school of 1,180 pupils aged 11 to 18, making it a sizeable secondary with a clear Catholic character that shapes its identity in this corner of the East Midlands.
