The Joint Education Team in the Dioceses of Durham and Newcastle supports your distinctiveness and effectiveness as a Church of England School. The Team also supports the delivery of Religious Education and Worship.
The Core Agreement shows the support available to all Church of England schools and academies. Support available for the administration of funding for Building work relates to Voluntary Aided Schools only.
The Dioceses undertake a range of tasks to help these schools maintain and improve the buildings in which they operate, and deals with the allocation and management of government funding for these projects. The Partnering Agreement does not reflect the actual costs incurred by the Dioceses in providing these services to schools, but represents a contribution and commitment to the support provided to the family of schools in the Dioceses. The subscription confirms membership of the Diocesan family of schools and academies.
The Diocean Education Team for the Dioceses of Durham and Newcastle will endeavour to provide the support outlined although circumstances may determine that the team’s efforts may have to focus on schools which have a pressing need. It is intended to facilitate a system whereby schools can access support not only from the Diocesan Education Team but from other schools in the Dioceses of Durham and Newcastle.
