I’ve spent today celebrating the recommendation for RE to join the NC, as I know how hard key people have worked behind the scenes to make it happen. Now I’m realising the benefit for young people & their ability to navigate the complexities & beauty of life in modern Britain. #TeamRE

A recommendation for RE to join be part of the National Curriculum. This is a positive step forward for the RE community in creating a future where the subject has parity with other subjects, increased government support, and consistently high standards across England. #TeamRE
The final report of the independent curriculum and assessment review is OUT.

Deep gratitude to the thousands who participated. One thing that’s clear is that there’s abundant expertise and passion across our system.
