Roy Peachey, a convert, a parent, a teacher and a home-educator, has written a thoughtful book on a subject that should concern all Catholic parents: Out of the Classroom and into the World: How to transform Catholic Education. What he writes is both wise and provocative, constantly reminding readers (essentially other parents and teachers) what Catholic education should be about: helping its students to become saints, as Pope Benedict, regularly quoted by Peachey, stated in his visit to the UK in 2010.
