Churches in Schools events this April

Clergy and members of local Church of Ireland, Presbyterian and Methodist congregations are invited to take part in a series of events, in early April, to discuss the role of the Church and local schools.  The three Churches in Schools events are organised by the Transferor Representatives’ Council.

Each will be an opportunity to share the current issues in the relationship between faith and education, and churches and schools, and for TRC to support churches in their role in nominating school governors.  The three events will take place as follows:

10.30am – 12.30pm

Venue: Vic-Ryn, T3 Conference Centre, 5 Rathdown Walk, Lisburn BT28 2RE

Enniskillen

Venue: St Macartin’s Cathedral Halls, Hall’s Lane, Enniskillen BT74 7DR

Refreshments will be provided with special dietary requirements accommodated.

The Transferor Representatives’ Council oversees the appointment of over 1,500 governors, nominated by its member churches, for controlled schools.  The controlled school sector is open to all pupils, and includes over 500 schools, 148,000 pupils and 8,000 teachers across Northern Ireland.
