Preparations are in their final stages before a major conference celebrating the achievements of church schools in England and Wales takes place later in the month.
Delegates at the conference will take a closer look at the unique contribution of Church of England and Church in Wales schools in offering education in a distinctly Christian context to more than 920,000 children and young people.
The conference on March 14 comes five years after the release of the Dearing report, ‘The Way Ahead’, and delegates will be challenged to identify key themes for the future development of church schools over the next five years.
