Religious education makes a significant contribution to pupils’ academic and personal development. The Ofsted School Inspection Handbook states that inspectors will evaluate the effectiveness of a school’s provision for pupils’ spiritual, moral, social and cultural education, including having respect for other beliefs and valuing the things we share in common across different religious communities.

In this webinar, Lat Blaylock, national RE advisor and secondary school specialist, explains how schools can deliver religious education and have difficult conversations with their pupils which are conducive to the meaningful exploration of different faiths, teachings and traditions in order to prepare them for the modern world.
