The Faith in the Nexus research project was an extensive empirical mixed methods study undertaken by NICER at Canterbury Christ Church University.
Throughout these two phased projects, the research team took a child-centred approach by attentively listening to the voices of Year 5 and Year 6 children speaking openly about their own faith and spiritual experiences in the home, school, and church environments.
Within this pack you will find hard copies of the various resources we have created to support families, schools, and church communities in
nurturing the spiritual flourishing of children.
Our Nexus website has further supporting materials that complement the contents of this pack and these are
clearly signposted.
