One of the Herald’s chaplains answers your questions
We were delighted when our son Tom was offered a place at our local Catholic academy school. It is over-subscribed, with an excellent academic reputation. However, we are surprised that it seems far less Catholic than his primary school. Mass and prayers don’t seem to feature. Tom says many of his teachers disagree with Church teachings. We signed him up for the school trip to Rome, but have just been told that they won’t be taken to Mass on the Sunday. Should we raise this with the head? This is important to us, but we don’t want to cause trouble for Tom.
