1.� Philosophical Statement

<![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]><o:p></o:p>

The central tenet of Diocesan practice is the recognition of the importance of the Parish.� Local faith communities generally mediate the Church to most people.

<![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]><o:p></o:p>

Therefore Diocesan Policy encourages Parish ownership of and responsibility for pastoral endeavours. This especially applies to the schools of the Diocese.� The role of the Diocesan Education Board and the Director of Catholic Schools is to enable and support the local school in achieving it objectives in partnership with Parish authorities, in particular the clergy.

<![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]><o:p></o:p>

The Lismore Diocesan Schools System is unique in New South Wales and probably throughout Australia in its emphasis on the principle of subsidiarity and the decentralisation of decision making.
