This is an ideal partner package for trusts within our Diocese as they grow and expand. GDBE elevate CORE | Focus provides access to system leaders, practitioner consultants and advisers up-to-date and current in their working practice, well-equipped to provide support to both church and community academy trusts.

Intrinsic to each GDBE elevate CORE | Focus partnership package are four keystones.

• SIAMS
• Christian Distinctiveness 
• Collective Worship for Church of England Schools (noting that we have expert provision for both Church and Community trusts). 
• RE for Church of England Schools (noting that we have expert provision for both Church and Community trusts). 

These four keystones are specific to support essential functions fundamental to the religious character and ethos of each Church of England academy trust. 

Our pre-designed Christian Distinctiveness consultancy support package ‘bundles’ are available for unique requirements within a single trust or for individual members within a multi-academy trust.

GDBE elevate can also provide additional expertise in school improvement and organisational development on request enabling enhanced capacity for targeted support in identified and specific areas of need.
