"The Second Mile" piloting begins
"The Second Mile", an instrument for Catholic
schools to review their distinctive Catholic character, developed by the
Ethos Committee of the Catholic Schools Board, is now being piloted in
four schools in the dioceses of Pretoria and Johannesburg. Schools reflect
on their ethos, religious education programme and pastoral care practices
in the review process. Once feedback has been received from the pilot
schools, the Ethos Committee of the Catholic Schools Board will offer the
Review to all schools.
