Is your RE provision strong, strategic and legally secure?

Various reports from Ofsted and other bodies have highlighted the role of RE within the curriculum but also how in some schools the legal requirements for all children to receive RE are not being met.   

The latest government policy paper – Protecting What Matters: Towards a more confident, cohesive, and resilient United Kingdom makes clear reference to the impact high quality religious education in schools has on social cohesion as well as being an important element of the school curriculum. 

This series of briefings, designed for anyone with responsibility for curriculum across a school or MAT will provide you with a clear understanding of the following 

  • How RE prepares children and young people for a complex and diverse world 
  • What great RE looks like in any setting 
  • What is needed for great RE for schools and teachers 
  • What happens if RE goes wrong 
  • What the responsibilities are for senior leaders and governors in relation to RE
