Saint Mary's Catholic Primary School is looking wonderful. Well done everyone

We do not just prepare pupils for exams. We prepare them for life. At OLHOC, we believe that academic success should sit alongside spiritual growth, emotional development and strong moral foundations. Our schools support every child to grow in confidence, resilience and compassion, so they can go out into the world with purpose. Faith is not something separate from education. It is part of how we form character, build community and help young people understand their role in the world. If you believe education should be about the whole child, follow us to see how we live this out every day. #SpiritualGrowth #MoralEducation #ValuesLed #Kindness #wholechildeducation

Really enjoyed leading an NPQSEND session today with a group of aspiring SENDCos from the OLHOC Trust. We focused on the role of the SENDCo in improving teaching and learning for pupils with SEND, and on how professional development for staff is a key lever for improving outcomes – not something that sits alongside the role. There were some really strong discussions about how the SENDCo role looks different in different settings, including across primary, secondary and specialist provision, and depending on the size, structure and maturity of SEND systems within schools and trusts. What came through clearly, though, was a shared commitment to inclusive, high-quality teaching and to SENDCos as leaders of learning, not just systems and processes. A thoughtful and engaged group, and a reminder of the value of space for professional dialogue like this. #npqsendco #cheshireschools #olhoc

Our schools are more than buildings. They are part of something bigger. OLHOC schools are deeply connected to their local communities. Pupils and staff regularly take part in local events, support parish life and contribute to initiatives that serve those in need. From food bank collections to Remembrance services, we teach our children that faith and action belong together. This sense of service is a vital part of our ethos. It teaches pupils that they have a role to play in their communities and that every small act of kindness matters. Tell us how your school connects with its community – we would love to share your story. #ValuesLed #Community #OLHOC #SchoolCommunity #FoodBank #RememberanceService #FaithSchool
