Primary RE Subject Leader Network Meetings
We would like to invite primary RE Subject Leaders to attend a series of 3 network meetings that will take place over the course of the academic year. The meetings will be a fantastic opportunity to meet colleagues from different schools, share good practice and discuss current research and initiatives.
The sessions will be run by Rahima Choudhury, Curriculum Leader of Guidance at Tallis & Associate RE Lecturer at Goldsmiths, as part of the work with RBG EYFS/Primary Strategy Group.  Rahima has been running a successful primary and secondary RE hub in Greenwich for several years. Rahima is passionate about her subject and wants to share this passion across Greenwich schools.
Sessions will include:
  • Opportunities for leaders to reflect on their leadership of RE and identify areas to develop back in school
  • Explore the Foundation of RE and Threshold Concepts; look at sacred stories across beliefs and religions
  • Collaborate and share best practice with RE leads across Greenwich.
  • A close look at progression of different strands of RE from EYFS to YR7
  • A deep understanding of substantive and disciplinary subject knowledge
  • Understanding what excellence looks like
  • Collaborate on building a bank of high quality resources
We encourage subject leaders from all Greenwich primary schools and with all levels of experience to join us. KS3 RE teachers/leads are welcome to attend.
