In his new book James Arthur has chosen a title that is controversial but befits his central thesis*: Catholic schools are in crisis, under pressure from the unsympathetic secular State (to include both the Local Education Authority and central government’s Department for Education) and lacking coherent support and direction from the Catholic community (to include bishops, school trustees and governors and teachers). The author traces how this has come about but stops short of offering a detailed manifesto for how the decline might be arrested.
