  This is a handbook for all those involved in the teaching of RE to 7-11 year-olds. It is intended to help teachers by illuminating the key elements and ideas of major religious traditions represented in Britain, and by looking at the theory and practice of religious education in relation to its aims. The 1988 Education Reform Act gave a new significance to the teaching of religion, placing new formal requirements on the subject. The nature and content of the curriculum has been the subject of intense debate, and this book provides a background to the main issues.
