Quay, John; Miller, Loren; Browning, David; Brodie-Mckenzie, Adam – Journal of Curriculum Studies, 2022

Scouller, Dianne L. – Journal of Education & Christian Belief, 2012
Recent research in two New Zealand Christian schools found that despite biblical vision and mission statements and declarations of pedagogy built on biblical foundations, actual classroom practice frequently differed little from that in secular schools. Teachers could clearly articulate their respective school's vision and goals but all except one…
