Developing Pupil Religious Literacy: Beyond Recall | RE CPD Training for Teachers & Leaders

How can we move Religious Education beyond surface-level facts — and help pupils truly understand religion and worldviews?

In this CPD session, we explore what religious literacy really means and how to develop it in the classroom. We’ll go beyond naming festivals and recalling beliefs, and instead focus on building pupils’ ability to interpret, question, empathise, and engage critically with diverse worldviews. This is essential for meaningful RE, and for preparing young people to navigate an increasingly complex, pluralistic world.

In this video, you’ll learn:

What religious literacy is, and why it’s more than just knowledge recall

How to design lessons that develop interpretation, analysis, and dialogue

Strategies for teaching pupils to connect beliefs to lived experience and society

Practical classroom activities that foster deeper understanding and empathy

By the end, you’ll be equipped with approaches to help students think critically, explore meaning, and engage confidently with difference — the hallmarks of powerful RE.
