THE leader of Scotland's Roman Catholics is expected to express "disappointment" at the lack of positive media coverage given to Catholic schools in Scotland.But he will claim there is a "determined and blatant bias" against Catholic education in the Scottish media.
He will also call on the leaders of Scotland's political parties to follow Alex Salmond's lead by celebrating rather than tolerating Catholic education.
In a strongly-worded call he will say: "I challenge them – quite simply – to tell the truth about Catholic schools in Scotland: to acknowledge their considerable contribution to Scotland's welfare, to recognise their distinctive provision, to praise their achievements and to pledge their support."
He will also say the time for grudging acceptance and outright hostility toward Catholic schools is in the past.
