Developing In Faith- School report 2025/26

  • Developing In Faith

  • School Report 2025-26

  • Developing In Faith was introduced as a way to capture the distinctive nature of school improvement for Catholic schools in Scotland. 

    It links the Charter for Catholic schools with How Good Is Our School as part of the natural improvement cycle of a school. 

    As part of this cycle, each year schools are invited to choose ONE characteristic to focus on and share the outcomes of their reflection on their faith mission.

    This update should be an evaluative statement, which may come from your 'standards & quality' report, that shares what we have done well and what we have identified as our next steps for improvement.

     

    Information provided will be collated and used to share examples of good practice in each of the 5 theme areas
