Religious Education

We seek to support maintained schools, academies and free schools, all of which must by law provide Religious Education for pupils (5-18). We have a particular responsibility for C of E schools, where RE is regularly inspected.

Heads, governors and RE leaders in C of E schools must be familiar with The Statement of Entitlement for RE (2026) | PDF
