Standing Advisory Councils on Religious Education
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what assessment she has made of the impact of local government reorganisation on local authorities' ability to (a) convene and (b) support Standing Advisory Councils for Religious Educations effectively.
Answered by Georgia Gould
The legal duty on local authorities, or any replacement of these entities, to convene a standing advisory council on religious education (SACRE) remain included throughout local government reorganisation. Discussions have been held about the role of SACREs with the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government as part of regular engagement.
