Ethos: Spiritual development

The Bench of Bishops in the Church in Wales:

supports the continuing contribution of the Church in Wales to the dual system of education in England and Wales;
acknowledges the role of the National Society in enabling this support to be effective;
encourages the Church's Provincial and Diocesan Education Officers to develop their work in statutory education in cooperation with Local Education Authorities and the National Assembly;
welcomes the new opportunities presented to the Church in Wales by the School Standards and Framework Act 1998;
supports, subject to the decision of the Diocesan Trust, any voluntary controlled school wishing to change its status to that of a voluntary aided school;
maintains that Church schools are central to the Church's mission to the nation, and
invites the whole Church community at parochial, deanery, diocesan and provincial level to share in this vision and to promote teaching as a Christian vocation.
