Network for Researchers in Catholic Education Annual Conference

Our conference, the theme of which is Fluidly Failthful? Catholic Education and the Institutional Church, will ponder the nature of the relationship between Catholic Education and the wider Catholic Church. Special consideration will be give to what is and what ought to be the relationship between the Church and Catholic universities and researchers. There will also be opportunities to tease out the ways in which Catholic schools and places of education embody and remain failthful in these times of fluidity and flux.

Short paper proposals (20-25 minutes) are warmly invited. We are very interested in receiving papers which address one or more of these issues:

• A critical analysis of the current state of the relationship between Catholic education and the Catholic Church
• What ought to be the relationship between the University and the Church?
• What ought to be the relationship between Catholic schools and the Church?
• How do schools and universities maintain their Catholic identity in a time of fluidity and flux?
• What is it to be fluidly faithful as a Catholic university or school?

Other proposals which are more generally about aspects of Catholic education will also be considered. We are particularly keen to receive papers from Headteachers or school leaders who are actively engaged in research on aspects of Catholic education.

Please send abstracts of up to 300 words to Dr Seán Whittle.
