New Learning Support Tutor at LCT

We are delighted to announce that Bec Scane will be starting with us in September as Learning Support Tutor. Bec is a reader in Newcastle Diocese, at Holy Cross, Fenham, and she trained at LCT (2022-25). She works much of the week in Newcastle University, where she has experience of supporting various students and projects across a wide range of higher education settings. She will be working with Tiffany, our vice-principal, to develop the college’s provision in Learning Support, especially for those with specific learning needs, but also more widely. Welcome back Bec!

Richard Briggs, LCT Principal, says ‘I am very excited to welcome Bec into this role and look forward to working with her. This has long been an important part of LCT, and we remain keen to develop it in our college life. Bec will bring energy and enthusiasm to the role.’

Bec herself adds: ‘I can’t wait to join the team and am excited to be back to support and develop this key area. I look forward to working together with both students and staff to ensure we can move forward together in this space.’

Welcome to Lindisfarne

Meet our Principal, Rev Dr Richard Briggs

Lindisfarne College of Theology (LCT) is a learning community for the Church in the North East. We are an Anglican college preparing people for Christian ministry across the whole breadth of the Church of England.

We take our name from the Holy Island of Lindisfarne, with its rich history of Christian spirituality – but we are not based on the island itself.

We work across Durham and Newcastle Dioceses. Weekly teaching is in the Church of England centres just outside Durham (Cuthbert House) and in North Shields (Church House). Some weekends we teach in other venues around the area.

Use this website to find out all about who we are, what we do, and how we live and work together.

I hope you will enjoy exploring what we have to offer.

Revd Dr Richard Briggs
Principal, Lindisfarne College of Theology
