Help! I’ve been given RE
This session will give you an introduction to being an RE subject leader.

Theologically Rooted Christian Vision
SIAMS 2023 asks about your school’s ‘theologically rooted Christian vision’. This session is aimed at schools who are looking to revisit their vision or who already have an established school vision. It will support school leaders to articulate the context of their schools, and to think about how to respond to this theologically. How do you then formulate an effective theologically rooted Christian vision and support your school community in understanding this?
