Abstract:
The question of how schools should prepare children to be citizens of diverse, multifaith societies is an ongoing feature of contemporary liberal democracies. However, we know little about how religion and ideas of being a citizen connect in everyday school life, and what this is like for the children themselves as they navigate social landscapes of growing religious and non-religious diversity. This lecture presents findings from the ‘Becoming Citizens of “Post-secular” Britain’ research project to address these questions. Using child-centred and participatory research methods, the research team spoke to children, their parents, and teachers in different parts of England, Wales, and Scotland to explore the different roles religion is playing in how schools teach about citizenship and national identity. As the religious landscape of Britain is changing, this lecture explores the different ways in which schools were responding to these changes in how they positioned religion in everyday school life, as well exploring the new sacred values which were emerging across all the schools. Comparing teachers’ and students’ perspectives on these aspects of school life, the lecture reflects on the implications of this research for developing bold and inclusive RE.
