Catholic Schools: Experience, Achievement, Encouragement, Challenge - Paperback

by Colin Brooksbank (Author)

Go therefore and make disciples of all nations ... teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you. Matthew 28:19

This is a remarkable and timely book about the reality of being a teacher in a Catholic school, especially in these times when Catholic faith, identification and belonging are being seriously challenged in our modern world.

The book is a series of reflections - on faith, calling, dedication, cooperation, caring, mindfulness, vocation, belonging - all key elements within the long tradition of teaching in Catholic schools.

Above all, however, the reflections offer practical recommendations and spiritual insights to encourage and strengthen Catholic teachers in their daily vocation of teaching children in a changing world and an evolving community called church.
