When young people feel safe, valued, and supported, they are better able to learn, grow, and thrive. Strong pastoral care nurtures wellbeing, builds positive relationships, and helps students develop resilience, empathy, and confidence—skills for life, not just the classroom.

And many are questioning how long they can continue in the profession they love.

An unwell workforce cannot deliver the best outcomes for children and young people.

Urgent action is needed to protect and retain the people who make education possible.

Congrats, Toby! 🎉

What a day!🙌✨

We hosted the biggest Youth Celebration Day the city’s ever seen — with a powerful performance from Antidote (joined by our CEO 👀), youth voices front and centre, and the launch of our Youth Consultation findings📢.

The energy was electric, and the message was clear: youth voice matters! 💥

Today I’m with 500 staff from the Painsley Catholic Trust @RCBirmingham. What a buzz in the room. A joy to be with so many people who ‘get’ the purpose of Catholic education.
