Curriculum and Pedagogy

When I read any of these chapters I am amazed with the way so many ideas are discussed with such simplicity and direct honesty. We as educators are challenged to present an outstanding curriculum with contemporary pedagogy from a 'Catholic place". How straightforward!
Do we as a school community and as a diocese have a shared understanding of that 'catholic place' ? Have our teachers been given the tools to design and deliver the not only the RE curriculum but all areas of learning with the challenge of finding truth, meaning and hope? These questions made me consider a very different aspect of the learning continuum. Is our curriculum coherent and progressive? I would like to think so but it would be a great discussion point. I do feel we immerse students in the living values and beliefs of Catholicism but do we challenge our students and staff to move beyond the first naivete to that post critical understanding?
 When reading about pedagogy I thought about how much time we have spent over the past years refining this so it is truly focussed on the learning not the teaching and thought perhaps we should have a relook at how our Catholic pedagogy is formally linked with this. As a staff  could we discuss the implications of our roles of being a witness, specialist and moderator to our faith tradition? Are we a Dialogue school? Do we strive to create the space that allows our students to engage in Catholic beliefs and traditions and share their views and understandings?
My favourite part in these chapters was the line was "ultimately, religious formation is God's work".
Our job is encourage and support this "encounter with grace."
  My first blog seems to be a series of questions!!! I'm not sure what that says about my thinking!
