'The most effective RE programmes delve deep into complicated topics rather than avoiding or skimming the surface of religious identities. Knowledge is a powerful antidote to extremism, discrimination and prejudice.' #RethinkRE #RENationalPlan

Shocked that Department for Education have again shown that they do not value Religious education. Even though National Foundation for Educational Research predict a shortfall of almost 1/3 of target for ITT, SKEs will not be funded after 10/4 even though it will continue for subjects with a smaller shortfall.

Good to see Department for Education minister Damian Hinds MP recognising the level of engagement of NASACRE and NATRE with policy makers. Also that the government has welcomed the @recouncil #nationalcontentstandard for RE in England. #nationalplanforRE RE Hubs ReThinkRE Campaign

We're excited to be lauching the #RE4Work campaign, a chance for employers across the country to pledge their support for RE.

Who is going to teach RE if we don’t improve the recruitment of specialist RE teachers?
RE involves discussing complex and sometimes sensitive topics. We need teachers who have the skill and knowledge to manage these conversations

ReThinkRE Campaign are launching their #RE4Work campaign, a chance for employers to pledge their support for high-quality RE in schools.

'Contrary to some misunderstanding, this was not a means of replacing the study of religion. Instead, it recognised that the faith of many religious people no longer fitted into institutional religions.' #RethinkRE #REteacher
