It’s good to see that the value of high quality RE is being discussed in the House of Commons, and that the work currently being undertaken to develop a draft National Curriculum for RE is welcomed.

Latest data shows that overall recruitment of secondary ITT has improved, but RE is facing a worsening recruitment since bursaries were removed. But help is available 👇🏼 natre.org.uk/news/bursary-cut-leads-trainee-teachers-of-re-to-fall-by-a-fifth-so-far-this-year-but-help-is-available/

Fantastic and very poignant welcoming words from @katiekatie84.bsky.social‬ to #StrictlyRE. "We stand in a moment where we can make change happen for our subject." Collaboration, humility, and shared hope for our subject is so important as we move forward together.
