There is no one single chaplaincy that I could identify; all are exciting, innovative, challenging, creative and ‘Patrick [the Chaplain at Haygrove] pioneering. However, one important area of growth is the ever has contributed so much to our increasing number of Chaplains in community schools. Once it was only community as a non-church school. I church schools that had Chaplains. Now community schools are valuing suspect that there have been benefits chaplaincy ministry. In this they join businesses, hospitals and hospices, for us, that we had perhaps not colleges and universities, the armed forces and police, sports clubs and expected. Patrick has earned huge local government, few of which are Christian foundations. I give thanks respect in our community and has that this barrier is breaking down in schools. It is wonderful to see added a calming and reflective community schools affirming and celebrating the spiritual and pastoral element to our culture, which is care that Chaplains offer and to hear feedback such as I received from noticeable on the days when he is the Head Teacher at Haygrove School, Bridgwater. It is every bit as with us.’ exciting for us as Chaplains to be able to share the love of God with Karen Canham ever more young people and staff.

  • • to All Parents and Carers in Bath and North East Somerset
    To all parents and carers in Bath and North East Somerset, BANES School Funding Crisis We are writing to you as a group of concerned head teachers and chief executive officers. You may have seen coverage in the national and local media about the situation with schools funding. This is directly affecting our schools now. Schools in Bath and NE Somerset (BANES) are experiencing unprecedented cuts to school budgets. Between 2013/14 and 2018/19 spending per child in BANES schools is down in real terms by -8.8% in Bath Constituency and -6.7% in NE Somerset¹; while pupil numbers and costs have gone up. Our priority is to provide your children with the best education we can, and we are working hard with our teams to cope. But we are reaching breaking point and we are now being forced to take really tough decisions. The steps we are taking vary from school to school, but the themes are: Bigger class sizes Fewer teaching assistants and other support staff (e.g. pastoral staff, mentors) Inadequate support for children – especially as support services have suffered similar severe cuts and / or face massive increases in demand e.g. Child and Mental Health services The inability to fully meet the needs of children with additional needs in mainstream schools who rely on school (and external service) support Low or no funding for equipment, training and activities to promote a broad and balanced curriculum As head teachers and chief executive officers, we have been cautious about communicating directly with you about the challenges we face (we cannot be seen to be political and it’s difficult to highlight individual challenges when our schools’ future depends on attracting new pupils).
