Catholic Social Teaching is a core vision of Catholic education
The National Framework for the Inspection of Catholic Schools, Colleges and Academies (2022) states that in an outstanding school, "the school community is committed to following the teaching and example of Jesus as expressed in the Gospels, the social teaching of the Church and the school's own particular charism."
Its importance is also recognised in "To know You more clearly", the Religious Education Directory for Catholic schools, colleges, and academies (2023) which states that an aim of religious education is "to present an authentic vision of the Church's moral and social teaching to provide pupils with a sure guide for living and the tools to critically engage with contemporary culture and society."
