DOUGLAS OSLER RIP

The Bishops’ Conference of Scotland is saddened to learn of the death of Douglas Osler, a dedicated servant of education and a faithful supporter of Catholic schools across our nation.

Douglas served with distinction as Chief Inspector of Schools in Scotland, was the first Chair of the Caritas Award Board of Examiners, and was honoured with a Papal Knighthood of St Gregory in recognition of his commitment and service.

We give thanks for his life and the lasting contribution he made to Catholic education. We pray for the repose of his soul and to ask the Lord to grant comfort, peace, and strength to his family at this difficult time.

May he rest in peace.
