Our Vision…
Sarum College is an ecumenical centre for Christian study and research where our passion is learning that nourishes the human spirit.
Welcoming people of all faiths and none, we offer space and time for enquiring minds to grow in wisdom and courage.
Keith Lamdin, Principal of Sarum College
Sarum College runs courses in specialist areas of Christian Spirituality, Leadership and Ministry, Liturgy and Worship, Theology, Imagination and Culture and The Arts. We have four postgraduate programmes which can lead to a certificate, diploma or MA degree.
Some places are set aside for those who wish to attend courses without seeking a qualification. The prospective students page offers more information about studying at Sarum. Sarum also hosts a number of special events throughout the year, including lectures and conferences, art exhibitions and lunchtime concerts.
“We were impressed by almost everything we saw and heard about the College, and especially by its clear sense of community, shared purpose and values; its clear educational vision and commitment to outreach; its high academic standards; its first class library and bookshop; its processes for monitoring and nurturing its students; its Trustees who are both professional and unstinting in their commitment to the College; and its Principal and Leadership Team who are both assiduous and dedicated in their excellent management of the College.”
