Priority 2 in this year’s Annual Improvement Plan is: ‘Improve the quality and increase the impact of Religious Education RC across all stages through a systematic and active review of the ten characteristics in the Charter for Catholic Schools in Scotland.’
A vital way our school community will take forward this aspect of our Improvement Plan is by adopting a more formal approach to pupils promoting and leading the Catholic dimension of our school which, as outlined in Cathedral’s mission statement, places Christ and Our Lady at the centre.
Following the submission of applications from Primary 5 – 7 pupils, a Junior Chaplaincy Team (known as IGNITE) has been established and our sixteen new Pupil Chaplains met for the first time on Friday 23rd August. The team’s mission, under the leadership of Mrs Carroll, is to spark faith and devotion in both pupils and staff. Our Pupil Chaplains will be officially commissioned by Fr Lamb at the Primary 1 Welcome Mass on Thursday 26th September.
