CORE School SLA 2025-26

This partnership with your organisation offers a best value approach for targeted support to enhance the GDBE’s annual cycle of training and continuing development for SIAMS, Spiritual Development and Religious Education, supporting Christian Distinctiveness of a Church School. 

Each CORE membership entitles leaders to a package of GDBE supplementary support, partner benefits and entitlement with our Education team, team of associates and partners to help build on identified areas for development.

We provide CORE partnership support, by means of an annual service agreement, primarily to assist in maintaining essential functions fundamental to the religious character and ethos of a Church of England school. 

Our partnership support is designed to extend and enhance our education team's freely available advice and guidance. 

Schools can opt to add to their CORE agreement with more GDBE consultancy packages such as Headteacher Appraisal Performance Management, School Improvement and Effectiveness support, Religious Education or People HR Advisory for VA schools to their CORE agreement.

If you are a non Church of England School and would like to become a CORE member please email gdbe-elevate@cofeguildford.org.uk for further information about how to join.
