As the only RE specialist in my first post, I soon learned the importance of networking with others teachers of RE and of keeping up to date with current developments in pedagogy and politics. More than 20 years later, I still love the excitement and challenge of the classroom but more than ever appreciate all the support and new ideas I get from NATRE members and the RE world in general. Currently, we are working on extending the reach of the curriculum focused materials that are distributed to teachers and schools in our termly mailing. We are doing this by developing our own website and by promoting teacher networking through local NATRE groups and through links with locally based advisers, consultants, ASTs, Humanities Colleges, Leading Edge and Training schools and others who have a mission to share good practice in and through Religious Education
