Religious issues & debates; Religious groups: social & cultural aspects; Moral & social purpose of education

Accessibly written to appeal to students of all levels, this unique book looks at the connections between religion, policy and education to offer a concrete framework for religious literacy work.

This book presents a crisis of religion and belief literacy to which education at every level is challenged to respond.

As understanding different religions, beliefs and influences becomes increasingly important, it fills a gap for a resource in bringing together the debates around religious literacy, from theoretical approaches to teaching and policy.

This timely publication provides a clear pathway for engaging well with religion and belief diversity in public and shared settings.
