WIRE Award

SACRE knows there is lots of fabulous RE being taught across our area. It is delighted to offer the chance for schools to receive the Wire Award to celebrate great RE!

The Wire Award is open to all Primary, Secondary and Special schools. It aims to encourage pupils to learn about diversity in our local area. To achieve it, you are asked to evidence just three things:

  1. A teacher in your school attends some RE CPD this academic year – for example, the local Bristol RE Hub.
  2. Either arrange a visit to a place of worship or invite in a visitor to speak to a class/school from a worldview that is NOT the majority.
  3. Enter an RE competition (for example, Spirited Arts) or invite parents to an exhibition of your learning about RE in the school.

Just three simple steps could enable you to receive the highly coveted Wire Award – presented by a member of SACRE to pupils in your school! A great way to raise the profile of RE.

We are pleased to announce that Bristol now has a tiered WIRE Award available (bronze, silver, gold). See attached documents for details.
