Great discussion about curriculum & assessment with @annatreth @BeckyFrancis7 @LizzieRobinson3 @knowledgerich @JohndickensSW at the @EducationFest - quite a bit of consensus about the way forward.

Brilliant @EducationFest panel on curriculum and assessment in schools with AQA’s Executive Director of Corporate Affairs and Strategy @annatreth in discussion with @BeckyFrancis7 @LizzieRobinson3 and @knowledgerich.
Chaired by @JohndickensSW.
Hope your day went well!
And that reference is so bittersweet: I remember vividly the be try conversation with the wonderful, late, Dawn Cox.
Pre-reading for our curriculum Inset Day @astreaacademies tomorrow & love this quote - "Every teacher thinks that their subject is special. We know ours is". Also noting that 15 years into teaching, I'm still learning from @knowledgerich! Looking forward to a day of thinking RE.

Today, when these beauties arrived, I realised that this is the 70th booklet that #OpeningWorlds has written. Just 2 more to go & KS2 will be complete.
Nearly 300 primary schools around England now get children reading at least 800 words a lesson of this gorgeous stuff.

"In this book, you will learn both British & world stories, but ones which start in different places and often change lanes."
Weaving a history curriculum is hard. But with great history teachers & historians, it can be done.
Welcome to #ChangingHistoriesKS3 Year 8. Out in June.
Thanks for engaging, though there’s no need to speculate what I ‘really’ mean. As I’ve said elsewhere: whether or not RE should be included in the national curriculum is just part of the issue. 1/
And, in such a two-sub-sector scenario, the Section 48 inspectorate (or equivalent appointed inspectorate in the case of academies) continues to inspect, not Ofsted 4/

A really thoughtful and well written article by @knowledgerich in @tes today. Clearly sets out the problems of RE as a Cinderella subject, but also recognises the incredible possibilities that come with high quality RE
🛐 Religious education has such an important role to play in helping young people to understand the world – but it will only fulfil its potential with clear national standards, says @knowledgerich

Thanks for engaging!
Though I agree, whether or not RE should be in Nat Curric is just part of the issue.
It’s the absence of either nationally-agreed content or statutory basic standard that leads to lots of variability in what pupils get in RE, in the worst possible sense.
An excellent piece from @knowledgerich on the essential nature of RE in the curriculum and clear national standards
…and I would add a place in the national curriculum @culhamstgabriel @NATREupdate

📣New post!
👡Time for Cinde-RE-lla to go to ball?
🧩Religion today is complex. Intelligent RE prepares pupils to engage
🌍Curriculum diversity? RE is inherently diverse
💭RE injects wisdom, sensitivity & reflection into world asking BigQs: eg AI💻 & living well together🖖

Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;
For tho' from out our bourne of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crost the bar.
Rest in peace, Dawn. We miss you
