Pshce in Catholic Secondary Schools: Stakeholders' Views David Fincham

Over the past twenty years or so, the subject of Personal, Social, Health and Citizenship Education has been developed in secondary schools in England as part of the curriculum of pastoral care. David Fincham argues that, where Catholic secondary schools are concerned, the development of Personal, Social, Health and Citizenship has been problematic and that the subject has challenged traditional and hierarchical perspectives in these schools. Consequently, divergences have appeared in the perceptions of members of the Catholic community towards what Personal, Social, Health and Citizenship Education should achieve.
