Covenant is entirely Ubuntu shaped - we find our humanity through the humanity of others
Our Offering
To this end, three strategic pillars have been identified:
Support existing Anglican Church Schools as extensions of Diocesan ministry and ‘sites of mission’.
ABESA will work alongside Dioceses and schools in order to clarify, articulate, and develop the Anglican Christian identity, ethos and culture of schools; and to strengthen the manner in which this is reflected in policy formulation, pedagogical and pastoral practice and meaningful responsiveness to the cultural, political and economic complexities of Southern Africa.
Establish new, high quality, accessible, low-fee Anglican Church Schools.
ABESA will Initiate and develop public-private partnerships which enable the founding of new schools, particularly Early Childhood Development (ECD) initiatives in underutilized parish infrastructure, and identify, capacitate and mentor the re-establishment of schools historically associated with the Church
Leverage partnerships in restoring the spirit and soul of public education.
ABESA seeks to contribute to the transformation of public schooling through partnerships which leverage revitalized and capacitated relationships between public schools, educational district offices, local parishes and specialist educational development service providers.
