Celebrating three years of RE Hubs

 

We’re excited to announce that the RE Hubs project has now been in operation for three years, supporting the community of Religious Education (RE), Religion, Values & Ethics (RVE) and Religion & Worldviews (R&W) teachers and practitioners across the UK.  
What began as an idea to support colleagues working in RE has grown into a vibrant resource and network — and we want to mark this milestone with you, our users and stakeholders. 

 

Our aims 

 RE Hubs aims to bring together the whole RE eco-community (teachers, advisors, SACREs, resource providers, etc). Its core aims are:  

• To improve connections between teachers, professional development providers and research communities 
• To improve connections across the RE/RVE/R&W community 
• To increase teachers’ access to local and regional professional development and research  
• To enable teachers to teach more confidently through access to the support available in their region 
• To create a long-term sustainable model for future provision.

 
How you can help 

 
To help us continue to grow, evolve, and serve you better, we’re inviting all website users, members of our community, partners and stakeholders to take part in a short survey. We want to find out: 

• What you value most about our website and support services
• What you’d like to see more of in our content and activities 
• What new features, services or resources you'd like us to explore
• How we might improve your experience of RE Hubs overall 

Your feedback will help shape the next phase of RE Hubs — and ensure we keep providing what you need. We have 2 surveys – one for schoolteachers and one for other stakeholders. 

 

Teacher survey 

 
If you are currently teaching RE at Primary or Secondary school please access the schoolteachers survey  ON THIS LINK.  

 

Stakeholder survey 

 
This survey is for RE/RVE/R&W stakeholders, including advisors, SACRE members, 
consultants, inspectors, religion and worldview leaders & representatives, school speakers, and university researchers, lecturers and professors. Please access the stakeholders survey ON THIS LINK. 

 
Why your voice matters 
 

As a teacher or practitioner or someone involved in RE/RVE/R&W, you face ever‑changing demands — from curriculum shifts to classroom workload, to the challenge of making teaching relevant and engaging. We want RE Hubs to be your go‑to resource that understands those challenges, listens to your needs and keeps improving. 
 
By completing the survey, you’re helping us to: 

• Prioritise our work so we focus on what matters most to you 
• Tailor our content and services so they fit your context and classroom
• Allocate our limited resources (yes, we’re not a commercial giant!) in the most impactful way
• Strengthen our community‑voice: let us represent what RE professionals really find useful 
• Deadline: We’d appreciate hearing from you by 20th December. Thank you in advance for your time and insight. 

 
About Us: we are a not‑for‑profit committed to the RE community 

 
RE Hubs is a not‑for‑profit project dedicated to supporting RE/RVE/R&W professionals. We exist because we believe in the value of RE/RVE/R&W and ethical reflection in shaping thoughtful, respectful, curious young people. We do not operate with a commercial motive. Instead, we rely on the generosity of our funders, sponsors, and the goodwill of the network we serve. 
 
Every resource we publish, every training course we provide and every practitioner we connect is made possible by donations, grants and sponsors.  
Because of this, your feedback is especially valuable: it helps us demonstrate to current and future funders that we are genuine, responsive and impactful.
