ReThinkRE Campaign
A National Plan for RE to ensure a high-quality education in religion and worldviews for every young person. Get involved at http://rethinkre.org
- Ed Pawson, member of the #RE Policy Unit, spoke at the Religious Media Centre's panel, discussing RE's role in boosting religious literacy, outlining how a #Religion & #Worldviews approach can address many of the division issues raised in the "Questions of Hope and Hate" report. ⬇️
- The Curriculum and Assessment Review has recognised #RE’s essential role in preparing young people for life and work by backing its inclusion in the #NationalCurriculum. @natre-update.bsky.social @deborahweston.bsky.social
- #RE has faced decades of neglect, leading to an ongoing shortage of trained teachers and a postcode lottery of provision. Including RE in the national curriculum is now an opportunity to end this. @NATREupdate @RECouncil @DeborahWeston #teamRE #reteacher
- We welcome the recommendation by the Curriculum and Assessment Review to include RE in the #NationalCurriculum. We look forward to working with the Government and the RE community to shape the future of the subject. religiouseducationcouncil.org.uk/2025/11/new-... @NATREupdate @RECouncil

- Reposted by ReThinkRE CampaignThe government’s Curriculum and Assessment Review presents a perfect opportunity to address the problems of inconsistency in RE, argues @sarahfcg.bsky.social from Religious Education Council: buff.ly/O4kIfLG #curriculum #schools #education #teaching
- RE is valued by employers and parents, yet there is a crisis of specialism in schools.
- A quarter of a million students take a GCSE in RS. Despite this, half of those delivering the lessons mainly teach another subject. Discussing the big questions in life is a vital part of young people’s education. #Worldviews #TeamRE
- GCSE RS remains one of the most widely taken subjects at KS4. 249,422 students took a GCSE RS this year. We urgently need more specialist RE teachers to ensure every child gets access to high-quality RE. #Religion #Worldviews #TeamRE

- RS A-level entries have dipped slightly (1.3%). With an ongoing shortage of subject specialists, @natre-update.bsky.social and the RE Council are warning that more and more young people who want to take the subject at A-Level are unable to. #TeamRE #Worldviews #religion #TheREpodcast1
- A-level RS entries have held steady this year, with a lower decline than most other humanities. RS allows young people to explore the religious and non-religious worldviews that continue to influence our society. #TeamRE #Worldviews #Religion #TheREPodcast
- RE teachers are reporting an increased interest in life’s big questions among students. RS A level entries saw a smaller drop this year than other humanities, and it remains a popular choice. @churchtimes.bsky.social #TeamRE #Religion #Worldviews ⬇️
- The number of students taking Religious Studies at A-level has remained stable at 15,005, with only a slight decline of 1.3%. Teachers report that a growing interest in life’s big questions is driving interest in the subject. ⬇️ @sarahfcg.bsky.social #TeamRE #Worldviews #religion
