Top tips on developing partnerships between church and school

This book encourages churches to build relationships with their local school, which includes engaging with the statutory Every child matters agenda and Extended schools initiative which becomes compulsory in September 2008. There are lots of fresh opportunities for churches to get involved in working with voluntary agencies to provide breakfast clubs, preparing to make the transition to secondary school, after school clubs, parenting classes, as well as more traditional links such as being a governor, taking assemblies, helping in the classroom.
