Leadership Reflections

CISC members represent a highly skilled and well qualified group of school leaders. A number of members have completed post-graduate research, are published authors, or appear regularly in the national press.

In Catholic education, there is currently not enough opportunities for such talented leaders to share their thinking and research. CISC would like to help to build the capacity of the sector in this regard by providing a platform for leaders to ‘blog’, to share with the wider community their thoughts and insights.

We are also working in partnership with the newly-formed Network for Researchers in Catholic Education which was inaugurated at a conference at Heythrop College in London in September 2016. For more information please visit www.heythrop.ac.uk.

We would also encourage contributions from our pupils, the leaders of tomorrow.
