Minutes:
The Head of Skills and Employability reported that this was his last meeting as Lead Officer and that Anne Astbury will be the Lead Officer for this SACRE going forward.
The Chair advised Members that Celebrating Communities have made a request to all religious organisations to ascertain if they would be willing to host visits from school children.
It was suggested that schools could advise which groups they would like to talk to which would suit their curriculum and Celebrating Communities will contact the schools by way of questionnaire.
IT WAS AGREED – (a) That the thanks of this SACRE be extended to Paul Richardson for his support.
(b) That the Clerk to this SACRE again contact all RE Leads within schools to offer visits by any of the religious groups represented on this SACRE; and that this offer also be included in the Schools bulletin.
