Book Come Follow Me and Foresake Temptation

Download or read book Come Follow Me and Foresake Temptation written by Tom A. O'Donoghue and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2004 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The focus of this book is on the situation prevailing in the United States, England and Wales, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand from 1922 to 1965, whereby Catholic schools were used to maximise the possibility of recruiting new members to the religious oders and to minimise the temptation to leave the religious life amongst those who had already joined. Four major practices are examined in this regard. First, Catholic schools deliberately set out to encourage pupils to join the ranks of the religious. Secondly, they replicated within the schools the authoritarianism of the religious life. Thirdly, they worked continuously to marginalize lay teachers from their decision-making. Finally, they were ever vigilant in their opposition to co-education and sex education. The contribution of the religious orders to Catholic education is recognized, but consideration is also given to child abuse, both physical and sexual, in whhich members of various religious teaching orders engaged. The book closes with some consideration of current practices in Catholic education. -- book cover.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries, the Catholic Church around the world insisted it had a right to provide and organize its own schools. It decreed also that while nation states could lay down standards for secular curricula, pedagogy, and accommodation, Catholic parents should send their children to Catholic schools and be able to do so without suffering undue financial disadvantage. Thus, from the Pope down, the Church expressed deep opposition to increasing state intervention in schooling, especially during the nineteenth century. By the end of the 1920s however, it was satisfied with the school system in only a small number of countries. Ireland was one of those. There, the majority of primary and secondary schools were Catholic schools. The State left their management in the hands of clerics while simultaneously accepting financial responsibility for maintenance and teachers' salaries. During the period 1922-1967, the Church, unhindered by the State, promoted within the schools' practices aimed at 'the salvation of souls' and at the reproduction of a loyal middle class and clerics. The State supported that arrangement with the Church also acting on its behalf in aiming to produce a literate and numerate citizenry, in pursuing nation building, and in ensuring the preparation of an adequate number of secondary school graduates to address the needs of the public service and the professions. All of that took place at a financial cost much lower than the provision of a totally State-funded system of schooling would have entailed. Piety and Privilege seeks to understand the dynamic between Church and State through the lens of the twentieth century Irish education system.

Book Issues of Faith Based Education in the United Kingdom

Download or read book Issues of Faith Based Education in the United Kingdom written by Andrew B. Morris and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2024-01-23 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The existence of state-supported Catholic and other faith-based schools in the UK has become a matter of controversy in recent years, as the previously tolerant acceptance of their role in the English educational system has come under attack. This book seeks to explain to both proponents and sceptics of religiously based educational provision how the maintained Catholic sector originated, what it seeks to do and its contribution to society. It describes the Church’s understanding of the primacy of parents in the education of their children and the limits of the state’s legitimate role. The book will be of value to anyone interested in understanding Catholic schools, those who send their children to them, and those who are working and teaching in them – or aspire to do so.

Book Using Visible Or Invisible Maps

Download or read book Using Visible Or Invisible Maps written by Catherine McCormack and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research study set out to gain an insight into the role of Diocesan Advisors in relation to their work in voluntary Catholic second level schools in the Republic of Ireland at a time of great social, cultural and political change. The research question is sub-divided and addressed throughout the thesis in three parts: What are the Diocesan Advisors' understandings of the purpose of the role? How do the Diocesan Advisors experience the role? How do the Diocesan Advisors perceive the future meaning and trajectory of the role? These parts of the research question were chosen in order to maintain a focus on the perceptions of the participants in relation to their role, their experiences in the role and their hopes and concerns for the future of the role in an increasingly secular landscape. As the knowledge to be generated is subjective, involving the participants' own perceptions and experiences, the research was placed in the qualitative field. A case-study approach was taken, and data was gathered in researcher-driven solicited diaries; individual follow-on interviews and in a final focus group interview. The literature review looked at five key areas for consideration in a study of this nature: 1. The identity of Catholic Schools; 2. Religious Education; 3. Inspection; 4. Diocesan Advisors; 5. Identity and Professionalism. The study includes the historical background of the role, and looks at the radical shifts that have occurred in the field of Catholic schooling and in Religious Education in recent years. The diaries and interviews were coded and interrogated using the NVivo software application package. Themes were identified. The results, with supporting evidence, reveal the experiences of a total of nineteen post-primary Diocesan Advisors. Their daily records tell of the multi-dimensional nature of their roles. Their views on the role and on their remit reveal further complexities. Their concerns for the future of Religious Education, the future of Catholic schools and the future meaning and trajectory of the role, add a rich insight into the workings of Catholic schools and into Religious Education in particular, in a changing landscape. This study has shown that Diocesan Advisors' work in an increasingly contested space. The impact of recent State directives has posed new challenges for the Advisors and for many of the stakeholders in the field of Catholic Education.

Book A History of Catholic Education and Schooling in Scotland

Download or read book A History of Catholic Education and Schooling in Scotland written by Stephen J. McKinney and published by Palgrave Macmillan. This book was released on 2019-06-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses the development of Catholic schooling in Scotland over the course of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Scholarship of this period tends to be dominated by discussions of the 1872 and 1918 Education (Scotland) Acts: while these crucial acts are certainly not neglected in this volume, the editors and contributors also examine the key figures and events that shaped Catholic education and Catholic schools in Scotland. Focusing on such diverse themes as lay female teachers and non-formal learning, this volume illuminates many under-researched and neglected aspects of Catholic schooling in Scotland. This wide-ranging edited collection will illuminate fresh historical insights that do not focus exclusively on Catholic schooling, but are also relevant to the wider Scottish educational community. It will appeal to students and scholars of Catholic schooling, schooling in Scotland, as well as Christian schooling more generally.
