| Summary: | As an educational researcher I began researching spirituality because, in the UK, spiritual development' is a statutory requirement for all state schools, and I wanted to explore whether this was appropriate and what it might therefore mean. This led to my researching relational spirituality (as also described by David Hay), both in the UK and Hong Kong, and the idea of the spirit of the school' emerged. This was subsequently applied to research on assessment, boys' schools, and computing. In this article, it is applied it to religious education. An approach to researching the spirit of religious education is presented, along with an invitation to join such a research project. |
