Networking - Catholic Education Today was set up in 1999 to provide Catholic educational organisations with a professional journal to engage and support their members’ interests and developmental needs. As a professional journal serving Catholic schools it seeks to inform, comment upon and celebrate all that is distinctive and important to its constituency, in addition to offering its partner organisations a vehicle for promoting their own activities.

The journal works closely with a variety of Catholic agencies to produce a publication whose content and coverage is of a consistency and quality to earn it an enviable reputation.
