Abstract

This chapter provides an analysis of the responses of SIM (Solomon Islands Mission) teachers to a number of questions asked in the Solomon Islands Teachers' Survey. The questions explore the teachers' understanding of the school's mission, their personal role in that mission, and how both relate to the mission of the corporate Church in its community. The questions also explored the teachers' perceptions about whether their school is successful in fulfilling its mission.
