St Michael's Catholic School is a Catholic all-through school located in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire. The school was formed in 2011 by the amalgamation of St Bernard's, a Catholic secondary school and St Augustine's, a Catholic primary school.^[2] The school is dedicated to Saint Michael. It is a voluntary aided school, which takes children from the age of 3 through to the age of 19. The school has approximately 1,000 pupils.

In September 2008 the school was awarded specialist school status as a Science College, by the Department for Children, Schools and Families (DCSF).^[3] From September 2012 the school stopped being called St Augustine and St Bernard's Catholic School and is now called St Michael's.
