Welcome to School Report
http://www.stuff.co.nz/interactives/schoolreport/2014/
School Report, set up by Stuff.co.nz in 2012, is an education resource
for parents and others interested in education. National Standards and
National Certificate for Educational Achievement (NCEA) results are
published for every school where the qualifications are used.
Information about the socio-economic background of students, ethnicity
and funding is also included on each school's page.The information is
designed to help readers learn more about a school. It's not possible
to make definitive judgements about any school just by looking at its
page on this site. But on each school's page, there is a link to its
latest assessment by the Education Review Office (ERO). Reading these
reports, as well as visiting and talking to the staff and parents at a
school are good ways of learning more about it.

STATION XV

Episode 86 — On synods, struggling, science and shonkiness (November 16, 2014)

The Synod on the Family — or Part 1 of the Synod, at least — has
continued to dominate headlines in the Church, including in New
Zealand, where the lone Archbishop, Wellington's John Dew, continues
to be a strong proponent of changes to the pastoral care of Catholics
who have divorced and remarried. Don, James and Gavin pick up the
conversation on the controversial topic, and also discuss the unrest
among some senior bishops and cardinals, as well as the allegedly
groundbreaking moment of a Pope saying evolution might be real! Quelle
horreur! There's also the actually groundbreaking comments of Prince
Charles on persecuted Christians and the latest "Jesus was married"
conspiracy. Enjoy the show — and if you do, why not invite a friend to
listen too?

What the Pope could do to defend religious freedom
Plus: Burke out, but English-speakers get a boost; and the
normalization of retired popes
http://www.cruxnow.com/church/2014/11/09/what-the-pope-could-do-to-defend-religious-freedom/

Just by reading the news, one has the impression that religious
freedom is under threat today. Thankfully, we don't have to remain at
an anecdotal level. "Aid to the Church in Need," a global Catholic
charity based in Germany, puts out an annual report on the state of
religious freedom around the world, and its new 2014 edition contains
sobering results ...
