Catholic schools continue to be a dominant force in the Australian education system. This book is a multi-authored book which explores the key issues faced in Catholic schools in the context of Australian and New Zealand societies.
Some of these issues are ongoing and particularly relevant to the Catholic context, such as the role of Catholic identity, and government funding for religious schools. Some of the issues have a more contemporary flavour and authors explore leadership in the Catholic context, and reflect on the spiritual dimension of the Catholic school.
The book contains the collective experiences and critical reflections of those deeply involved in Catholic education. It brings together lessons learned by many Catholic education leaders in every state of Australia and forms essential reading for teachers, executive staff, principals and parents who want to know more about the direction of Catholic education.
