The second question has also been prompted by one of the schools with which I’ve
been in touch. Broughton Hall School in Liverpool is a Catholic secondary school for
girls. One of the appeals of MI theory for them is that it reinforces the Christian belief
that all human beings are born with unique God-given talents. I have been wondering
about the take up of MI theory in different kinds of school. Is there any evidence that
it is particularly appealing to faith schools?
This paper is based on a lecture given at Institute of Education University of London
on November 17 2004. I am grateful to James McAleese of Richard Hale School in
Hertford and to Margaret Grant of Broughton Hall School in Liverpool for their help
on how schools are applying MI theory.
