Abstract
This paper examines the recent change of theological focus in Catholic educational theory. It finds a renewed theory (theology) of education emerging under the themes of the nature of the person, the function of knowledge, human destiny within history, and the individual's stance toward society. This research was prompted by the changed context of Catholic schooling, which no longer addresses itself to a homogenous Catholic subculture. The paper concludes that the four themes converge as an emerging theology of education, which regards the transformation of students and their engagement in secular society as the primary educational aim.
