The main focus is on actual understanding of the term itself and its practical applications in RE. Terms such as 'self-development' and spiritual and religious affiliation(s) will also be explored.
The research is also interested in:
-
teachers' religious and spiritual affiliation(s) and their personal background
concerning their personal development, if any (as considered by the participant)
-
possible relationship between teachers' religious and spiritual backgrounds and
teachers' views about spiritual development and self-development

teachers' views about methods and provision for spiritual development in RE lessons
