They support projects that encourage diversity in<br>schools, generate compelling learning experiences in RE, and build up a bank of RE teaching<br>resources which can be used in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bristol Minds<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bristol is a city of many faiths and worldviews and is celebrated for its contribution to the<br>artistic and intellectual worlds. It is as famous for its music and street art as it is for its<br>world-leading university. However, as in all cities young people often lack the opportunity to<br>meet Bristolians with worldviews different from their own. Meanwhile the artistic and<br>intellectual cultures of the city may seem out of reach and \u2018untouchable\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With funding from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westhillendowment.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Westhill Foundation<\/a>, Bristol SACRE is bridging these gaps through its<br>Bristol Minds project. This introduces KS3 students from ten secondary schools to \u2018Bristol<br>Minds\u2019 (BMs), who are adults of diverse worldviews working in creative, intellectual,<br>scientific, non-profit or professional fields. BMs are identified through SACRE and the young<br>participants themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Participating schools nominate two students to meet their Bristol Mind. The students are<br>tasked with interviewing their BM about how their worldview informs their professional<br>lives and day-to-day activities and experiences. Questions regarding meaning and happiness<br>are particularly encouraged. From this, the students create a range of visual resources to<br>share understanding of the BMs and what they have learned through their direct<br>interaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In April 2023, a conference will be held to bring together all the participants, as well as<br>additional students and teachers to share the outcomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From June 2023, teaching resources based upon the project activities will be available via<br>the Bristol SACRE website.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The WESTHILL\/NASACRE Awards (June 2022) In March 2022, Bristol SACRE successfully applied for a Westhill Award.
