Draft Benchmarks Consultation Events

Religious & Moral Education (RME)

Religious Education in Roman Catholic Schools (RERC)

Education Scotland is currently drafting benchmarks for RME and RERC. We would welcome the opportunity to consult widely with practitioners on these emerging benchmarks. To facilitate this, a series of consultation events will be held.These events are open to all secondary RME/RERC staff and all primary staff.

Dates and locations for events are in the table below. You must contact the Senior Education Officer for Religious and Moral Education, Joe Walker to register your interest in attending, using the proforma on the second page. Although each event is aimed at a particular geographical location, you are welcome to attend any event which is convenient for you.

As you will see, space is limited at some venues so if an event is over-subscribed, attendees will be selected so as to provide a balance of sectors and geography.

I hope you will be able to support this important development in Scottish Education.
