St Benildus College is an all-boys, Catholic secondary school located in Stillorgan, Dublin, Ireland. Established in 1966,[1] the college was named after the De La Salle Saint, Brother Benildus of Clermont-Ferrand, France. As of 2023, there were over 880 students at the school.[2] It is located on the Upper Kilmacud Road in South Dublin on a 25-acre site. The Luas green line runs close to school, and the Kilmacud stop is at the back of the school.[citation needed]
St. Benildus College has been under the trusteeship of the Le Chéile Trust since 2010 but retains its Lasallian ethos. Several De La Salle Brothers reside at St. Benildus monastery on the school grounds. The school is administered by an eight-member board of management.[citation needed]
