Subject Knowledge

Welcome to NATRE's Primary Subject Leader page on Subject Knowledge! As a primary subject leader, you play a crucial role in ensuring that your school delivers high-quality religious education (RE) to students.

Our Subject Knowledge section is designed to help you enhance your knowledge and understanding of RE. We provide a variety of resources, including lesson plans, teacher training materials, and guidance on curriculum development.

A great starting point is our digital starter pack with links to all kinds of resources – from knowledge organisers to resources on different religions (Members only).
