WA New to Christian Schooling | Faith & Practice

A special professional learning event for those new to Christian schooling. This training seeks to empower staff in Christian schools to embrace their purpose and mission to bring the message of Jesus, through education, to a world in need.

We look forward to welcoming members and non-members, who may be new to Christian schooling, to this event. 

Event Information

This event is ideally suited to any staff (teaching and non-teaching) who may be new to Christian schooling.

This training program has been specifically designed to be run as a staff induction program. It is comprised of four individual sessions and the last two (Faith and Practice) will be explored at this event.

Faith: This module specifically tackles the role that faith, theology and worldview play in a school environment and how this can be done well.
