If you are an RE teacher looking for support with teaching about non-religious worldviews and the flexibility to engage in enriching CPD in your own time, then this is the online course for you!

Best of all, it’s completely FREE.

With between 60-120 minutes of content, depending how much you want to cover and how deep you want to dig, it’s ideal for primary and secondary teachers new to teaching about non-religious worldviews, as well as RE leaders looking to introduce a unit of work on humanism. You’ll develop your subject knowledge and pick up practical ideas for the classroom.

We’ll break down the humanist approach to life into five core areas of knowledge to support your teaching and planning. Our content is designed to help you provide students with an understanding of how humanists live their lives and respond to life’s big questions, giving them the tools to consider the humanist perspectives on many of themes and topics explored in RE.
