Abstract
Warwick Religions and Education Research Unit researchers wrote a report on a large scale study for the UK Government's Department for Children, Schools and Families published in January on the internet. Twenty-nine researchers and reviewers were involved in this study, the first ever to focus on the use of materials used in religious education across England. In addition to reviews of numerous books, audio-visual materials, and websites by panels of specialist academics, faith group consultants, and professional experts, there were 20 case studies of different schools across England, including maintained and independent, primary and secondary, and faith-based and nonfaith-based schools, plus a quantitative survey of schools of all types.
