Faith Leaders

Roles and Responsibilities 

- To help prepare for the Celebration of Mass 

- To lead the School in Collective Worship 

- To ensure our prayer areas around School always look their best 

- To be involved with planning celebrations connected to the seasons of the Church 

Introduction:

Our School Faith Leaders are role models of faith in our school, sharing their love of prayer and worship with all members of our School community. 

All children from Key Stage 2 were once again given the opportunity to put themselves forward to be chosen as a Faith Leader. 

Our Faith leaders will meet on a regular basis to begin learning how to carry out their vital roles in leading members of our School community in worship. 

Our Faith Leaders have done a fantastic job of assisting with the first Masses celebrated in school this year and look forward to continuing to welcome each year group to Mass throughout the rest of the year.  

Child-led Collective Worship 

Our first group of Faith leaders three years ago spent a great deal of time designing a guidance frame for use during each of the four stages of Collective Worship, to help prompt thoughts and ideas during the planning process. 

We have also created a Liturgical Calendar of Themes, to guide children in making appropriate links between the current Liturgical Season, themes for the season, scripture sources, prayers, music, artwork and of course the Values and Virtues of focus in School. 

All of our wonderful Faith Leaders have had a hand in creating these resources and understand how to use them, so that they may be of support to their peers in class when planning and leading Collective Worship.

These resources have now been published below, so please take a look and feel free to use them during family Collective Worship sessions at home.
