Complaints about religious education and collective worship in voluntary aided schools
There are slightly different arrangements for making a complaint
about religious education or collective worship in a voluntary
aided school. If you have a complaint about the religious education
or collective worship provided in such a school and you have not
been able to resolve it in discussion with the headteacher or other
staff, you can make a formal complaint to the governing body, in
accordance with the arrangements.
If you are not satisfied with the outcome, you should refer your
complaint to the appropriate Diocesan Education Officer, who can
arrange for it to be considered by the Bishop or Archbishop of that
Diocese. When your complaint has been fully investigated and
considered, the Diocesan Education Officer will write to you and to
the relevant officer of Medway Council (as the Local Authority),
letting you know the outcome and explaining:
- the decision taken and the reason for it;
- any action that has been or will be taken to resolve your
complaint (including details of any request to those complained
against to take particular actions);
- any further appeal you can make.
