About

We want our students to have the confidence and resilience to stand up for what is right and the desire to reach out to others. This balance of confidence and compassion is not on any syllabus, yet it is central to everything we do and embedded in our aims and values. Olive High Boys believes that the safety and welfare of pupils is an integral part of the ethos of the school.

In that, the school aims to create an atmosphere in which pupils feel secure, where their view points are valued and where they are encouraged to talk and are heard. To view our Safeguarding Policy, please.

In the school’s own words, from the school website.
