The Stapleford Centre (UK) is an independent Christian education charity, working across the UK, that supports, nurtures and shapes Christian engagement in education. Since its inception, the Stapleford Centre’s aim has always been to promote knowledge and understanding of the Christian faith, its place in our heritage and today’s society and to create a generation of teachers who are well-informed, well-equipped and have a passion for their job.
In December 2011 the Stapleford Centre entered a new phase of its development. Responding to the needs of Christians working in education and influenced by the prevailing economic climate the Stapleford Centre closed its office in Stapleford, bringing to an end a direct link with Nottingham that has lasted over 25 years.
Continuing to work across the United Kingdom the Stapleford Centre remains focussed on being a transforming Christian influence in education. In the coming years it will seek to meet its core aim by initiating and developing communities of Christian educators that have the capacity to shape Christian engagement in education at a local, regional and national level.
Building on networks that have been established over the last 25 years, the Stapleford Centre remains involved with a range of Christian teaching and education organisations. These include EURECA (European Educators Christian Association); ACT (The Association of Christian Teachers); TISCA (The Independent Schools Christian Alliance); The National Institute for Christian Education and Research (Canterbury Christchurch University); The Centre for Christian Education (Liverpool Hope University); The Kuyers Institute, Grand Rapids, MI, USA; and the Christian Schools Trust. The Centre is part of the EA Forum for Change Education Cluster, and is also a member of the Religious Education Council for England and Wales.
