The CCRS is a nationally accredited course in Catholic theology and its application in religious education in school and parish. It is valuable for all teachers and an essential requirement for any teacher applying for senior management positions in Catholic education. We also recommend this course for those who may simply wish to expand their knowledge of their faith.

Our diocesan Commission for Evangelisation is working with the Margaret Beaufort Institute of Theology in Cambridge (part of the Cambridge Theological Federation) to ensure that the programme is efficiently and effectively delivered. Each unit is being taught by a different specialist, under the guidance of a Course Director based at Margaret Beaufort.
