Introduction

Church schools have their foundation in the Christian Gospel and are linked to a worshipping community. Day-to-day life reflects that foundation throughout the whole curriculum and ethos of the school.

The Joint Education Team covers 10 Local Authorities from the Tweed to the Tees.  

We offer professional, expert advice and support to over 100 schools and colleges.

We hope that our website is informative and useful. 

Our office is located at Church House, North Shields, NE29 6HS

The Church of England is a major provider of statutory education, the largest provider of schools in England. There are over 4,600 Church of England primary schools and more than 220 secondary schools.

A recent review, more limited in scope than the Dearing Report, offers a framework within which the continuing work of the Church can be developed and shaped. It may be downloaded here: Church School of the Future Review (Chadwick) (2MB pdf)
