    The Church of England has been involved in education in the Diocese of Hereford for hundreds of years.  Our schools are not 'faith schools'. They are highly inclusive and aim to provide a vibrant education, not only for Christian families, but for everyone from all faith backgrounds, including those of no faith. 

    Jesus excluded no-one from his ministry and focused on the most vulnerable in society. Ours is an education for everyone. 

    ‘Educating for life in all its fullness’ 

    Educating for life in all its fullness is the goal of the Church of England’s ‘Deeply Christian, Serving the Common Good’ vision for Education and is central to the vision for our diocese and our trust. At the heart of this shared vision is the search for wisdom that rings true both with the Bible and Christian understanding and with experienced educational practice in the twenty-first century. 

    Support for school leaders is all-too-often lacking in our education system and in our diocese. We work to provide bespoke support and sustenance to our school leaders, especially our headteachers. We cherish our school leaders because we know that high-performing headteachers and school leaders build and sustain high-performing schools, which in turn enable our children to flourish. 

    We work in partnership with the Church of England’s Foundation for Educational Leadership and together we aim to: 

    “inspire a set of leadership practices that both exemplify Wisdom, Knowledge & Skills, Hope & Aspiration, Community & Living Well Together, and Dignity & Respect, and that also go to the heart of educational purpose: Called – inspiring the vocation of the education leader; Connected – enabling the flourishing of children, adults, teams and communities; Committed – sustaining long-term engagement in realising this vision for education.”
