About the Centre:
The Centre for Pioneer Learning aims to resource and equip those who are training for pioneering leadership in the Church of England, and to provide a focal point of training, research and collaboration for church pioneers across denominations and worldwide.
Directed by the Revd David Male, Ridley's Tutor in Pioneer Ministry, the Centre is a collaborative project developed by Ridley Hall in partnership with Westcott House (a fellow Anglican member of the Cambridge Theological Federation) and the Diocese of Ely.
The main areas of the Centre's life are:
- to oversee the Ordained Pioneer Ministry Track at Ridley Hall and Westcott House
- to bring together pioneers from across the world to learn together
- to provide research, study and sabbatical facilities for pioneers
The Centre aims to serve all pioneers who are establishing new forms of Christian community and taking the Church to new and unreached places. It offers an environment where pioneers can meet together, and be resourced, challenged and supported to take pioneering forward in its scope and effectiveness.

About Pioneer School
Pioneer School is designed for pioneers who want both input and support for their ministries.
Six day sessions spread from October to May will provide you with theological and practical resources from key speakers on the important issues you encounter, and dedicated space to meet other pioneers and benefit from mutual support and encouragement.
