The Church of England’s Central Education Office has produced an updated report on rural schools entitled Embracing change: Rural and Small Schools which looks at the problems facing rural and small schools in the current financial and educational climate and offers suggestions on how we can work together to support them.
We have established a small schools network to support schools in our diocese and we would encourage schools to send a representative to the meetings which take place termly.
Please contact Sue Noakes for more information.
