Here’s a preview of this term’s RE Today magazine which will be sent out to all NATRE members.
Lots of ideas, inspiration and illumination!

The national annual report on SIAMS inspections over the last year by @DrMJ93 was published this morning by @CofE_Education. Good to celebrate the positive, and draw together recommendations to improve impact on children, young people and adults in schools.

Another great summer residential full of playing sports and talking life!

New memories were made, friendships formed and records set!

Who's already waiting for next year?! 👋

One acid test for a curriculum is whether it enables even lower-attaining or disadvantaged pupils to clamber in to the discourse and practices of educated people, so that they gain the powers of the powerful. - Christine Counsell https://t.co/zkxK12h3JG

We loved using the #ExperienceEaster resources to enhance our children's work in #RE and foster their spirituality. @sgerkenjohnson

[The Diocese of Gloucester @GlosDioc]

Four hundred children in one week!

#ExperienceEaster is a fantastic teaching resource which can bring schools and churches together🧑‍🎓

@twintwo_73 😂 I'd looked at it and noted it as one for further investigation.

The following section about the First Nation's Stolen Generation is both heart-breaking and fury-inducing.

Don't know whether the 5 mins around 42-47 mins might be useful for someone's RE lesson. Great stuff! @NATREupdate

@twintwo_73 Spices apparently.

[Chris Topher @beardedmrm]

What supermarket aisle is the pickle in?!

[Chris Topher @beardedmrm]

@twintwo_73 Try again.

[Chris Topher @beardedmrm]

@twintwo_73 That is true 😂

Here are things that I appreciate about the summer holidays as a teacher:

1) Eating breakfast as a family
2) Getting to cook for the family
3) Getting a haircut on a week day
4) Being able to finish a book in under a week
5) Not using the words spreadsheet, rota or data.

[Chris Topher @beardedmrm]

@MorgsEdu This is definitely true. However I would also suggest that students who do this do it because they cannot 'see' what the outcome of other tasks could/should be. We have seen challenge/risk embraced through modelling from teachers and celebrations of work done by previous cohorts.

This morning, I can't help but think again of how important it is for everyone to show this video in RE lessons in September. Thanks @Theosthinktank https://t.co/eNLF2lrakX

My 9 year-old absolutely nailed this photo during our morning out at Cannop Ponds @FoDDC #nofilter
