Description: Dr William Sultmann asserts the centrality of Christ as the cornerstone of the Catholic school. The metaphor of cornerstone invites the response as to how the life and message of Jesus is mediated through the visible lives of his followers. We are reminded that it is through the Spirit of Christ that the community of the Catholic school draws its life and imagination. This is an imagination that seeks to become present and responsive to the Spirit of Christ in ways that are authentic, personal and practical.

Those practical responses are explored in six chapters that combine faithfulness to the Catholic tradition with contemporary insights into the nature of education. Cornerstone sensitively reinforces professional practice shaped by a Catholic Christian meaning system; explores this meaning system through spirituality, mission and leadership.

"This book is a shining light that will become a beacon of hope and possibilities for Catholic leaders and educators who are grappling with challenges and problems within contexts of disruption, uncertainty and rapid change."
Professor Emeritus Patrick Duignan
