The Education Renaissance Trust, a UK registered charity, was founded by the SES in 1998, with the aim to make their "philosophy of education based on spiritual values available more widely". The ERT provides support and funding for the St James "schools" worldwide, and currently runs inset training days for teachers in UK state schools. The Chair of this charitable Trust is Nicholas Debenham.
