We have decided to pause and not to proceed with a new intake of students from September 2025. In light of the leadership transition within New Ground, we feel it would be a good opportunity to stand back and look more broadly at equipping and how we develop leaders. We plan to involve numerous people from across the different hubs in this training review.
We will consider running a number of one-off training days in England while the review is underway. We are also open to making the existing Academy material available during 2025-26 if churches want to use components or modules from it for local leadership development. Please contact us to discuss what you’d find helpful and we can work out the best way to make the material available.
