Finding School Speakers and Places of Interest

We know that many schools are keen to invite speakers from religion and belief traditions into their classrooms, either physically or virtually, and are often looking for recommendations of places of worship (or other places of interest) to visit. For the last number of years RE-Hubs has maintained a database of trained speakers and approved places to visit. This database exists for teachers and schools to get in contact with places of interest and school speakers for Religious Education lessons and for no other purpose.
NASACRE are delighted to announce that the database will be held on the NASACRE website for all regions of England, and so strengthen the ability of SACREs to signpost schools to resources. All 1000 people and places on the RE Hubs database in England have been contacted and asked to transfer their data to NASACRE. The process of transferring data across has begun and the database can be found here.

We are also partnering with the Faith and Belief Forum to provide a renewed training package for School Speakers and Places of Interest who wish to work with schools, representing religion and belief traditions. The training will run on the following dates and times (we are running the same training session three times):

Monday 30th November 2026 from 10-1pm

Wednesday 2nd December 2026 from 1:30-4:30pm

Wednesday 20th January 2027 from 9:30-12:30pm

If you would like to go ahead with the training to become an Education School Speaker (ESS) or a Place of Interest (POI) then please fill in this form below:
