The Christian Consultants' Network

The Stapleford Centre's Christian Consultants' Network exists to promote distinctive Christian thinking about current educational issues. It consists of Christian educational consultants, senior head teachers, diocesan education teams and Christians who work with Local Authorities.

Meeting three times a year, the Christian Consultants' Network is offered free of charge. Each meeting is based on a seminar model that maximises the time delegates have to interact with the keynote speaker.

Delegates are drawn from across the denominational and theological spectrum, providing a unique opportunity for the exchange of ideas, information and development of distinctive Christian thinking.

We aim to provide three one-day meetings per year, to attract a high quality of speakers, to encourage deep thinking and to disseminate the results of seminars, where applicable, in the form of position papers which will be available to download from our website.

It remains the intention of The Stapleford Centre's Christian Consultants' Network days to help equip, empower and energise Christians in senior education positions and to advocate a distinctive Christian value-driven approach to teaching and running schools.
