Education team

The Education department is concerned with securing the highest quality, sustainable, education that is deeply Christian, serving the common good, and growing faith across every generation. This is underpinned by the development of strong, shared, Christian spiritual leadership for all ages along with supportive networks that will enable communities to be transformed and faith to grow.

The Education Team comprises of our Education Advisors and our Go Team Advisors working in partnership with each other and across our diocese. Our Education Advisors specifically support our work across education, enabling schools to flourish. Our Go Team Advisors focus on our work with churches, households and schools, primarily through the lens of children and young people enabling faith to flourish.
