Stephen David Conway SCP (born 22 December 1957) is a British Anglican bishop. Since December 2010, he has been the Bishop of Ely. From 2006 to 2010, he was the Bishop of Ramsbury, an area bishop (before 2009) and then suffragan bishop of the Diocese of Salisbury.
Conway was born on 22 December 1957. He was educated at Archbishop Tenison's Grammar School, a state grammar school in Lambeth, London. He studied modern history at Keble College, Oxford, graduating with a Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree; as per tradition, his BA was promoted to a Master of Arts (MA Oxon).
Conway remained at Keble College to undertake teacher training, and he completed a Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) in 1981. He then became a teacher, working as an assistant master at Glenalmond College, an independent school in Perth, Scotland, between 1981 and 1983.
In 1983, Conway matriculated into Westcott House, Cambridge, a Anglican theological college in the Liberal Catholic tradition, to trained for ordained ministry. During this time he also studied theology at Selwyn College, Cambridge, and he graduated with a further BA degree in 1985. After a further year of training, he left theological college in 1986 to be ordained in the Church of England.
