10 Facts Students in an Anglican School Should Know The Anglican Church has played a significant role in the education of Jamaicans. Education for our Church is much more than providing the physical resources for the teaching and learning environment. We also focus on religion and morality. Religion, so that our youth will understand that, ultimately, we are accountable to God for the life we lead. Morality, so that we can help to instil the respect for law and order that is vital for the continued existence of a society in which we can all live in peace and harmony. This book seeks to demonstrate how we can achieve this goal through the values, customs and lifestyle we practice as Christians.

Celebrating A New Culture: A Curriculum For Moral Development Designed especially for school chaplains, ordained and lay members, this manual presents issues which the Diocesan Education and Youth Board recommends for discussion and contemplation during daily devotions at school. The narrative on each subject is concise, thereby providing an opportunity for the chaplain/coordinator of the assembly period to build on the key text and the objective of each stage. We believe that the experience of each school community offers a suitable frame of reference for dialogue between competing values.
