Crisis, Controversy and the Future of Religious Education sets out
to provide a much-needed critical examination of recent writings
that consider and respond to the crisis in religious education and
more widely to a crisis in non-confessional forms of religious
education, wherever practised. The book is critical, wide-ranging
and provocative, giving attention to a range of responses, some
limited to the particular situation of religious education in
England and some of wider application, for example, that of the
role and significance of human rights and that of the relevance of
religious studies and theology to religious education. It engages
with a variety of positions and with recent influential reports
that make recommendations on the future direction of religious
education. Constructively, it defends both confessional and
non-confessional religious education and endorses the existing
right of parental withdrawal. Controversially, it concludes that
the case for including non-religious worldviews in religious
education, and for the introduction of a statutory, 'objective'
national religious education curriculum for all schools, are both
unconvincing on educational, philosophical and evidential grounds.
Timely and captivating, this book is a must-read for religious and
theological educators, RE advisers, classroom teachers, student
teachers and those interested in the field of religious education.
