SCHOOL HELP

  • Lots of tips for useful sites here for teachers, parents and pupils from Web Evangelism's Tony Whittaker

In some countries, religious education is a required part of the national curriculum. It may surprise those in USA, France, and other countries with strict separation of church and state, to hear that in relatively secular UK, religious education is compulsory through primary and a considerable part of secondary education. Admittedly, it is these days multi-religious, but there are still many opportunities for Christian teachers (and even invited visitors) to cover large areas of the curriculum in a sensitive manner from an evangelical viewpoint.

Young people often undertake online research to find additional material which covers Religious Education (RE). 'REQuest' has been designed to resource students (and teachers) in UK to explain Christian beliefs and practices in terms appropriate to the UK national curriculum, right up to GCSE level.

Damaris and Stapleford Centre also offer resource for Christian RE teachers:

There are other apologetic sites which can help students and teachers, such as those covered at:

Here's an opportunity to create a religious studies homework portal with links to many appropriate pages:

Most students also study secular set books and plays during their schooling. This also gives us the potential to offer thought-provoking material based on books and plays:
