Spiritual Development

Audience: School staff

This course will enable teachers to gain a fuller understanding of what is meant by spirituality and spiritual development. It will provide clear and usable definitions for these difficult terms and consider why spiritual development is such an important aspect of the education we offer. We will be looking at how different people express their spirituality in so many different ways and discussing how schools can cater for this diversity. Practical help will be given to enable schools to identify when and where they are providing opportunities for spiritual development through collective worship, in subject areas and in the wider co-curriculum.
