questions - are you up to the challenge of answering them? If you’ve
considered a career as a Secondary RE teacher, you’ll know what an
exciting subject it can be. From world religions, to philosophy, to
consideration of ethical problems, RE teachers tackle the ‘big question’
head-on. You won’t always find the answer, but you’ll help young people
to think about their own views and to listen to the views of others. RE
has the highest number of GCSE entrants (outside of the core subjects)
and is a growing subject. Schools are looking for high-quality, well-
trained teacher specialists. If you are a graduate in Theology, Religious
Studies, Philosophy, or an allied discipline (such as Sociology, Politics, or
many others), then perhaps it is the career for you. Bursaries are
available to support your study and you can earn Masters credits for your
academic work. You’ll be placed in at least two schools, gaining
experience across the 11-16 age range and in the Sixth Form if you wish.
The big questions are waiting to be asked-are you ready to answer them?
