The Education Service supports schools across the Diocese of Brentwood in the effective management, maintenance and development of their land and buildings.

Our work includes advice and guidance on capital projects, statutory compliance, estate condition, property matters, energy management and the use of school premises. We also support schools in understanding where diocesan approval or involvement is required.

The arrangements for land, buildings, funding and capital works vary according to the type of school, including voluntary aided schools, academies and independent schools. Our School Property Guidance explains the relevant responsibilities and provides practical guidance, procedures, templates and other resources for headteachers, school business managers and governors.
