Diocese of Norwich

Who we are

The Diocese of Norwich is the Church of England across the areas of Norfolk and Waveney.

Supporting churches

Resources, training and practical advice for all who serve in our churches and local communities.

Welcome to the Education section of our website. We are here to support our schools, their pupils, staff and governors, churches, and communities to ‘Flourish Together’ and achieve ‘Immeasurably more than we can imagine!’

Vision

We see the ministry of the whole of the Diocese of Norwich, across Norfolk and Waveney, as being about how we live our life together, for the flourishing of every person in every place.

Cost of living support & resources

Over the last year, many of us have noticed increases to the cost of everyday bills. Whether this is the price of our weekly shop, filling the car with fuel, or heating our homes. Costs seem set to continue to increase, and this may cause you further strain or anxiety.
