Welcome to the first episode of the Catholic education podcast, an irregularly-published foray across the sweeping landscape of the sector.  

This edition is a whistlestop tour of the Declaration on Christian Education, known as Gravissimum Educationis (roughly ‘the importance of education’), which emerged out of Vatican II in 1965. It is based on research conducted by CES Director Paul Barber and others.

You can listen on Spotify.
