Ways to get involved…
New RE Curriculum – Webinar
A New RE Curriculum has been introduced in both state and church run schools across Coventry and Warwickshire.
The new curriculum is an exciting opportunity for churches to engage with their local schools and help to develop children’s experience and understanding of faith and spirituality.
To explain the new curriculum and how your church can support your local school, we have arranged for Jen Jenkins from the Diocesan Board of Education (who helped create the new material) to host a Webinar. Click below to register.
(if you can’t be present online during the webinar but are interested, please register anyway, and we will send out a recording after the session).

A way to connect…
If you are a Children, Youth and Families worker or lead volunteer and would enjoy the chance to connect with others in similar roles then you are warmly invited to join one of our ‘Growing Faith Leaders Huddles.’

Huddles meet monthly on zoom (and periodically in person) to reflect on and develop our leadership skills, through the lens of our work with Children, Young People, Families, and Volunteers.
