Support and advice for teachers who are preparing children for Reconciliation for the first time or as a refresher. The use of support materials will be explored and further resources will be shared.

These meetings are a vital opportunity for the
exchange of information, ideas, support and
guidance between Principal Teachers as well as
an essential point of communication between
the RE Department of the Archdiocese and the
RE Departments of the 21 schools across the
Archdiocese.

This session will explore the Sacrament of
Confirmation at an adult level as well as reviewing
the core learning and lessons involved in preparing
pupils for the reception of the Sacrament.

Support and advice for classroom implementation and
sacramental preparation will be offered and there
will be an opportunity for dialogue with colleagues.

This leadership programme uses the Good Shepherd journals principal teacher. Following the academic and liturgical year, middle leaders from across the country will join on-line small group peer sessions to explore Catholic leadership using academic texts, professional dialogue, Church teaching and reflection.

Participants will be given a copy of the Good Shepherd Journal in advance. Each month they will be sent details of the reading and discussion materials to focus on. It is hoped that participants will join all sessions so as to allow the groups to build a professional peer network.

(The cost of £40 is for all sessions and includes the journal – the fee remains the same whether you opt for 1 or all sessions)
