Paul McColgan

It is with immense pleasure and an honour to be the Director of Inclusion, serving our schools and supporting all the children across the Trust. 

Having spent almost thirty years’ collaborating with schools, local authorities, and educationalists, I am passionate and excited to be working in catholic education with like-minded inclusive people who show unconditional support and a caring, empathetic approach with relational practice at the heart. 

I have always been a keen advocate for inclusion with the firm belief of ‘every child having the right to an education and the right to a childhood’ and know firsthand the importance of investing in people with an open, honest approach, striving to bring the best out of everyone. 

Outside of education, I remain a devoted season ticket holder at my beloved Everton FC and can often be found on the bank honing my angling skills or walking my dog Charlie in local country parks.
