The Reverend Canon Paul Seaman
Since 2017 I have been the Rector of St Mary’s Church in Pulborough and the Ex-Officio Governor of our village church primary school.
Before ordination I trained as a primary school teacher and taught for a short time in an infants’ school in Berkshire. Following ordination I have served as the Vicar/Rector of several parishes and served as a governor on a number of governing bodies over the last thirty years. This included serving on the governing body of Rumboldswhyke School for eleven years when I was Rector of St Georges, Whyke.
Among my other responsibilities, I currently serve as the Vice Chair of the Diocesan Board of Education which is the body that has the responsibility of overseeing the work of all the church schools across Sussex. I am very pleased to serve as a Trustee for the Bishop Luffa Learning Partnership, supporting the outstanding work being done in our schools and looking to expanding and developing the work of the Trust in the years ahead.
