Abstract
This paper argues that recent legislation in England has created a culture in schools that is at odds with that required by the Catholic Church. It reports the results of a 2004 survey of almost 100 governors and six diocesan directors of education which examined the extent to which school governors were aware of consequential tensions and, if so, how they were seeking to resolve them. The survey confirmed the findings of Grace that the ‘spiritual capital’ that had defined the ethos of Catholic schools in the past was weakening and not being renewed. The schools were therefore beginning to lose their distinctive character.
