Centre for Chaplaincy in Education Annual Report for the year ending 31 December 2021

1 Annual Report

The Trustees present their annual report under the Charities Act 2011 together with the Accounts for the year ending 31 December 2021.

A Structure, Governance & Management

A1 Legal Objects

Centre for Chaplaincy in Education (CCE) was started in 2018 as an unincorporated charity. CCE was incorporated on 22 October 2019 as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO).

CCE‘s Constitution is based on the Charity Commission’s model governing document for Foundation CIOs, where the Trustees are the only Members of a charity.

As defined in CCE’s constitution the charity’s objects are:

A2 Public Benefit Statement

The Trustees are aware of the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit in “The Advancement of Religion for the Public Benefit” and have regard to that guidance in their administration of the charity. CCE believes that this report provides evidence of the public benefit of the charity’s work in the year. As described more fully throughout the report, CCE’s work supports educational chaplaincy, primarily in schools and further education colleges. Chaplaincy in these establishments reaches students, staff and families and is open to those of all faiths and none, meeting their spiritual and pastoral needs.

Centre for Chaplaincy in Education Annual Report for the year ending 31 December 2021

A3 Trustee recruitment, selection and induction

The minimum number of charity trustees is 3 and the maximum is 12. In accordance with the Constitution, Trustees are appointed or re-appointed for a term of three years by a resolution passed at a properly convened meeting of CCE’s trustees.

In appointing Trustees due consideration is given to ensuring that the Trustees have, between them, the skills and experience necessary to manage the charity effectively and in accordance with charity law.

New trustees are provided with the constitution, latest annual reports and accounts. Other induction and training is provided depending on the individual needs of new trustees.

B Vision and Strategy

The vision, strategy, values and strategic priorities were developed by the Trustees in late 2020 and early 2021, following consultation with a wide body of educational chaplaincy organisations and practitioners leading to a final strategy document for the period 2021-2025 being approved in March 2021. This strategy is reviewed annually by the Trustees.

The vision is

“A chaplaincy in every school and college in the UK”

with core strategic strands of

Advocacy : to increase awareness of the value of, and support for, chaplaincy in educational settings (and more specifically schools and colleges)

Formation: to provide and facilitate induction and ongoing training and support for all chaplains in education

C Activities, Achievements and Performance

C1 Advocacy

Our advocacy work during the year was focussed on the following main activities :

3

Centre for Chaplaincy in Education Annual Report for the year ending 31 December 2021

chaplaincy in schools and colleges. The Launch event was attended by 40 participants on 17[th] September, in spite of Covid restrictions. An annual face to face gathering is being planned in addition to on-line and more localised network CPD. Work continues to develop Hubs in the Midlands, NE and Wales.

The appointment of a part-time communications consultant (funded by Porticus Trust) has enabled CCE to raise its impact in advocacy through consistent and evolving social media engagement, generating considerable interest and reach, throughout 2021.

C2 Formation

The 2020-2021 grant from the Porticus Trust has also enabled CCE to develop (in partnership with Newman University, Birmingham) the following:

A major event in CCE calendar was the National Conference for School and College Chaplains. Due to the pandemic this was pivoted from a face-to-face conference to on-line delivery of a 12-hour interactive conference. The conference was innovative in concept and delivered on a platform which allowed for a diverse range of opportunities for participants (from prayer space, ‘in conversation with’ reflections throughout the day, worship (including joining Taize live for their evening service), keynote speakers and workshops focusing on major issues relevant to chaplains (gender identity, mental health, inclusion in race, digital theology and the environment). Access to resources and an exhibition of organisations sharing resources relevant to chaplains allowed delegates to explore at their leisure post event as well as on the day.

C3 Future plans

Advocacy

The census of existing chaplaincy provision which is underway under the existing partnership with

4

Centre for Chaplaincy in Education Annual Report for the year ending 31 December 2021

Newman University, will continue to be an essential component of work going forward. The information obtained (and subsequently reviewed and updated regularly) will form a key element of tracking as we work towards the vision of ‘A Chaplaincy in every school and college’.

The third on-line Commissioning Service will take place on September 16[th] , 2022, as part of the commitment to raise awareness of chaplaincy in education.

It is planned that a North East hub will be launched in 2022, with plans for further hubs in the Midlands, Wales, the North West and East Anglia in subsequent years.

Formation

Regular workshops are being run as stand-alone, follow-up sessions from the 2021 National Conference, following the main workshop themes.

The Induction course and the Exploring Education Chaplaincy course will continue to run and work is underway on a new course for those who have completed three or more years as education chaplains and will be run as a pilot from May-July 2022.

The planning process for the National Conference for School & College chaplains 2023 will commence at the start of 2022 and again involve all denomination and organisational leaders.

C4 Trustee Development

Trustees are encouraged to participate in development opportunities as and when appropriate.

D Financial Review

For these purposes CCE will endeavour to generate and maintain reserves which are at least 25% of its annual expenditure.
