Catholic environment

Please find some examples of the Catholic environment which includes school entrances, corridors, incidental prayer areas and classroom prayer areas.  
You can download an audit of your Catholic Environment here.  Some schools find it useful to ask children to help complete this during a tour of the school. They can then suggest improvements or even take responsibility for caring for different areas of the school.   If you would like to contribute to this resource page, please email d.harris@bdes.org.uk
