Synopsis

Time for Reflection is a comprehensive handbook for school chaplains and all with responsibility for ensuring the spiritual development of children and young people. It offers clear and essential guidance on a wide variety of topics: • the role of chaplains in relation to pupils, parents, staff and the whole school community • guidelines on appointing chaplains • codes of conduct • involving chaplains in the delivery of curriculum content • chaplaincy and pastoral care • chaplaincy and crisis support • a practical theology of chaplaincy. In addition, busy chaplains will welcome the range of tried and tested ideas for assemblies and other acts of religious observance, and the directory of online resources for chaplaincy ministry. Framed within Scotland’s Curriculum for Excellence, and grounded in academic research, new and experienced chaplains everywhere will find Time for Reflection an invaluable guide.
