We Are Proud to Be Part of the SHINE Project

We are delighted to announce our involvement in the SHINE project through the ‘Accompaniment’ initiative, a targeted programme designed to support vulnerable pupils at St Aidan’s Catholic Academy and St Anthony’s Catholic Girls’ School.

The Accompaniment project is rooted in compassion and commitment to nurturing the whole child. It aims to address the specific challenges faced by students who are most at risk of disengagement from education, offering tailored support to help them re-engage with learning, build confidence, and develop a sense of belonging within their school communities.

Through the SHINE project, we will work closely with students, families, and school staff to create a safe, structured, and supportive environment where every young person is seen, heard, and empowered to reach their full potential.

This initiative reflects our shared mission across the Trust to live out our Catholic values by putting pupils’ wellbeing at the heart of everything we do. We are excited about the positive impact this project will have and look forward to seeing our young people thrive.
