In OLHOC schools, faith is woven into the rhythm of daily life. It is present in the way pupils treat one another, in the moments of quiet reflection, and in the acts of kindness that go unseen but never unnoticed. Whether pupils are preparing for a liturgy, taking part in collective worship, or simply learning how to live out our shared values, faith is not something separate from education. It shapes the culture of our schools and helps children grow not only academically, but spiritually and morally too. Across the Trust, every school lives out this mission in its own way, but always with the same heart. How does your school community live out its values? #OLHOC #ValuesLed #Liturgy #Worship #DioceseofShrewsbury

At OLHOC, we believe pupils should not only be heard, but listened to. Every child has a voice, and in our schools, we create space for that voice to grow with confidence and purpose. Through school councils, pupil chaplaincy teams, leadership opportunities and classroom discussions, our young people help to shape the life of their school. They learn that their opinions are valid, their ideas are welcome and their actions can make a difference. This is not just about leadership. It is about respect, responsibility and the development of character. When pupils feel heard, they feel empowered. And when they feel empowered, they flourish. #PupilVoices #ConfidentChildren #WholeEducation
