Chaplains aim to provide a sensitive Christian presence within a secular state school system. School chaplains work with students, families and staff in the school community. Chaplains work within the school as caring adults as part of a professional student services team by:

  • Building relationships with students, families and staff.
  • Offering pastoral care.
  • Being a mentor.
  • Providing additional practical help for teaching and administrative staff.
  • Offering input into spiritual and "meaning of life" questions.
  • Being a positive role model.
  • Providing a link between schools and local communities.
