ACTuality is an email service delivered to ACT members and friends to draw attention to topical issues of interest to Christians who work in, and have an interest in, education. 

the pages

the week  education news from the week, especially relating to the role of teachers and leaders.  It’s useful to know what the press is saying and, although it may not all be entirely accurate, useful to know what people are reading.

the job  items relating to the art and craft of teaching; from resources to courses, regulation to explanation. With teachers being responsible for their own CPD, this section can be a useful source of inspiration.

the life  items of interest to all Christians working in education, about how a Christian lifestyle and world view make for a different kind of professional practice.

the prayer diary – An item for prayer each day relating to schools and education in the UK and globally.  Items often contributed by members. Available online and as downloadable A4 sheet

the blog  posted mostly by ACT staff, it takes a current item of concern and reflects on it from a Christian teachers’ perspective.  Often provocative, designed to stimulate the members of ACT who are, after all, thinking individuals.

the vacancies  members are invited to advertise vacancies here for free (at the time of writing) knowing that other members and supporters in the Christian community will have access to these.

Inclusion of material does not imply ACT’s agreement with or endorsement of the agencies, activities or products mentioned.  Recipients are advised to exercise proper professional judgement, and consider the information given in the context and time it was given.

"Let me tell you why you are here.

You're here to be salt-seasoning that brings out the God-flavours of this earth.

If you lose your saltiness, how will people taste godliness?

Matthew 5.13,14
