Roman Catholicism believes this too

No, Catholicism is much more specific that this kindergarten journalism. Maybe the Church of England postulated something that makes a Catholic sense and maybe it hasn't, there is not way to tell from this.

The Catholic Church teaches that God as the only Creator of life and of the species MAY have alos put in place some evolutionary principles as another law of nature. A Catohlic MAY believe that, or, as my humble advice would be, he MAY believe that God simply made the species one by one, as something we have most ample evidence of being the fact. In any event, a Catholic MAY NOT believe the stupid tale how species just happened without any divine involvement from mud.

Theistic evolution is allowed as a theory in Catholicism. Direct creation of species one by one, -- literal creaitonism is also allowed as a theory. Neither of these two contradicts the reason. Non-theistic evolution is a heresy and also a shameful stupidity and mockery of science.

compatibility of belief in both God and science

Forgot to mention, no Catholic ever disputes that. Scientific facts are another Bible: this how God reveals Himself to man. At dispute here is charlatanism of Darwinism, not honest science.

The CoE took a vote on that? Hilarious.
