Summary Annotation Spirituality and Education introduces the basic contours of current debate in a form accessible to both classroom teachers across the curriculum range, and to school managers. It covers all key areas, including: * problems of defining spirituality* government legislation and supporting documentation * relevant empirical research* the social dimension of spirituality* secular and religious manifestations of spirituality in contemporary society* theories of childhood spiritual development* contemporary approaches to spiritual education, including collective worship and cross-curricular teaching.
