Come follow Christ in the footsteps of St Chad
Welcome to LDBE
Our involvement in education in the Diocese of Lichfield goes back to the beginnings of the Christian story in Mercia. When St Chad our first bishop settled here to bring the good news to the people of his time the values and the culture of the Gospel, he set up a monastic community; and it is from monasteries that the first schools in our country grew. Today, as we seek to follow Christ in the footsteps of St Chad, our schools continue to offer good news, sound values and a nurturing culture to children and young people across the vastly diverse communities of modern Mercia. The work of our Diocesan Board of Education is wholly focused on supporting teachers, governors, churches and communities as they deliver high quality education to our students and their families: open and welcoming to all and offering a distinctively Christian approach.
