Assembly: Major Jonny Smith

At the 2024 Schoolswork Conference, we heard how The Salvation Army is present in many schools from senior leaders, teachers, staff, and governors. And from volunteers who are running assemblies and lessons, listening to children read, running after school clubs, mentoring programmes, uniform banks and more. Yet there are many other schools with open doors, where we could be making a difference. The conference provided resources, teaching and space for networking to equip local corps to join in with God who is already present in our schools, and tell new stories of hope and transformation.
