#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.

Libby Ahluwalia shared some absolute gold dust for preparing pupils for A-level RS-related degrees. So generous, clear and memorable, with careful consideration of those who do not have the advantages in life. My top quote: ‘remember, it’s an application, not a fridge magnet’. #TeamRE #NATRE

On this morning’s BBC R4 Sunday Programme, a DfE spokesperson said that RE trainee numbers are up — true, due to the bursary they’ve now scrapped!
The rise proves incentives work.
Removing them will undo the recovery.

Feeling so excited for the future of our wonderful subject. There’s a lot of work to do, but the community is strong and raring to go!

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

This Thursday #TeamRE

The bursary for RE teacher training will be withdrawn for 2026-27, worsening the national RE teacher shortage.
