Launched last week, it is a website that will grow and develop and, together with our own CASIAS site (see below), is already a helpful resource as you think about the values that are the heartbeat of your school. A secularist spoiler has been set up, but the genuine site is www.christianvalues4schools.co.uk Celebrate! Ely Cathedral, Sunday 21st June, 5.30 p.m. Celebrate School, with Bishop David, is for everyone associated with one of our schools or who simply wants to join in the celebration in this special year for our Church in this region. Come to Celebrate with us! Moving On Our Schools Administrator, Debbie Jordan, will be leaving us next month to take up a new challenge as Secretary to the Master of Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge. During her three years with the team, Debbie has been the welcoming voice at the end of the telephone, developed this Schools Bulletin, re-organised many of our systems and kept us all organised in a calm and efficient manner. We will greatly miss her, and she goes with our blessing and gratitude. Debbie’s last day will be June 12th. Churchschools East: Excellence through Distinctiveness CASIAS, our local consortium to support you develop your school’s distinctiveness and SIAS preparation has recently been re-christened Churchschools East, to reflect our vision of developing a wider range of resources for use across our region. A new logo and website will gradually take shape, but you heard it here first! This creates vacancy in our team for the post of Schools Administrator and we would be delighted to hear from anyone who might be interested in applying for the post which will be advertised shortly. You will need to be a cheerful person who is highly motivated, flexible and efficient. Excellent communication skills and a good command of ICT will be needed to ensure the professional management of the Schools Office and to: • be the first point of contact • act as PA to the Director • help organise a range of events and communications • support various meetings and committees • co-ordinate governor appointments and inspections • handle a wide variety of other tasks Please contact Debbie to receive the full details when they are published next week.
