We see the results to date of a survey circulated around Leicester schools asking if they would be interested in being supported by SACRE – and, if so, what form they’d like that support to take. We have written responses from 19 schools:
- Beaumont Lodge Primary School
- Catherine Junior School
- Charnwood Primary School
- Evington Valley Primary School
- Glebelands Primary School
- Humberstone Junior School
- Inglehurst Junior School
- Lancaster Boys
- Mayflower Primary School
- Merrydale Infant School
- Mowmacre Hill Primary School
- Northfield House
- Overdale Infant School
- Queensmead C.P. School
- Rowlatts Hill Primary School
- Scraptoft Valley Primary School
- St Barnabas C.E. Primary School
- Stokes Wood Primary School
- Willowbank Children’s Hospital School at Leicester Royal Infirmary
Given the recent discussion in the Leicester Mercury about collective worship in local schools (see blogs passim), it’s appropriate that we’re presented here with a draft statement from SACRE, clarifying matters. I’m going to make that a separate blog entry in its own right: it’s too important to allow it to be buried here. Similarly, I’ve posted a separate blog entry based on a handout distributed at this meeting about the Equality Act 2010 and its impact on schools, as well as a workshop task on what makes a good SACRE member.
Under Any Other Business at the end of the meeting, I’m able to share information about forthcoming activities and events:
- Christians Aware Course on the Psalms at Christchurch;
- Philosophy Panel at St Paul’s;
- “Speedfaithing” at Phoenix Square during Leicester Speaks;
- Inter Faith Week exhibition at Highcross;
- Faiths Film Festival at Phoenix Square;
- Favourite Faith Photo exhibition at Leicester People’s Photographic Gallery.
