4 Pope Francis emphasised that Catholic education is one of the most important challenges for the Church, currently committed to new evangelisation in an historical and cultural context that is undergoing constant transformation. Plenary session, Congregation for Catholic Education, 13 February, 2014
5 Pope Francis said effective teachers will Value dialogue. Be well formed. Express the living presence of the Gospel. Plenary session, Congregation for Catholic Education, 13 February, 2014

7 We need to appreciate that to educate is not a profession but an attitude, a way of being to be in the midst of young people to give them hope, optimism for their journey, in the world. Text taken from Pope Francis address to Jesuit Schools 7 June 2013
8 Curriculum in general
9 Leadership Real educational leadership involves and inescapable dilemma to plan for a future that can only be dimly discerned. D Orsa, T., & J. (2012) A Mission to the heart of Young People: Catholic Curriculum. p.2 4/04/2014
10 A Catholic curriculum assists young people to: engage constructively with the wisdom and faith of the community in a way that is meaningful to them, living as they do in a particular cultural and historical setting with the life chances this setting has to offer, and the constraints that it imposes in the process of establishing their identity as individuals and as members of the community. D'Orsa, J & T. (2012) A Mission to the heart of Young People: Catholic Curriculum 4/04/2014
11 Principles of a Catholic Curriculum
12 Pivot Principle A Catholic curriculum places Jesus, his message, his mission, his community, and his ethos, at the centre of all learning, whether dealing with public meaning or personal meaning.
13 Pedagogy what is it? Derived from the Greek term paidagogos meaning teacher of children And so broadly speaking refers to the art and science of teaching.
14 Effective Pedagogy
15 So the question arises. Is it sufficient in Catholic schools, to simply replicate secular pedagogical practices?
16 Or Should there be an authentically unique Catholic approach to pedagogical practice?
17
18 What do these images tell us about the journey these people are taking??
19 Catholic Pedagogy Secular Divine
20 Sharing the Gospel Today (2012) p /04/2014
21 God s way of teaching is Based on relationship with persons, initiated by God. Uses the events of life as formation. Is gradual and progressive Sharing the Gospel Today (2012) p /04/2014
22 God had it sorted first!! And his way of teaching are seen in the way that Sharing the Gospel Today(2012) p /04/2014
23 Jesus Christ carried out his saving mission. Teachers can learn from The way he received others as people loved by God. His undiluted proclamation of the Reign of God in word and deed. His invitation to a way of living sustained by faith in God. Love of neighbour His use of all the resources if interpersonal communication. Sharing the Gospel Today (2012) p /04/2014

25 A Catholic pedagogy
26 Our Catholic pedagogy tells us that when a child walks into a classroom, this child is someone, created by God, for God and these children are on a journey home to God.
27 Key Characteristics of Catholic Pedagogy Suspending Disbelief: Engaging in Mystery Balance Searching for Truth and Celebrating the Truth These pedagogies are from Catholic pedagogy: Nurturing Pilgrima or education tourists? Dan White (2008) Journal of Catholic School Studies, Vol 80. Issue 1 May /June 2008
28 Key Characteristics of Catholic Pedagogy Asking God s Questions: Nurturing Pilgrims or Educating Tourists Making Jesus Real: Fostering Relationships These pedagogies are from Catholic pedagogy: Nurturing Pilgrima or education tourists? Dan White (2008) Journal of Catholic School Studies, Vol 80. Issue 1 May /June 2008
29 We need to answer this question Does our current pedagogy nurture spiritual pilgrims or educate tourists?
30 The art of teaching the faith is the art of assisting others return to God the Father in love and holiness of life Bishop Raymond Burke (2000)
31 A divine pedagogy is a place where words and deeds, teaching and experience are interlinked a revelation experience whereby the beauty, mystery, majesty and love of God is gradually proclaimed to human beings.
32 Pope Francis on schools. The principal element in school is to learn to be magnanimous to have a big heart, to have greatness of mind, to have great ideals, to desire to do great things to respond to what God ask of us, and to do well the little things of each day with a great heart open to God and to others.
