Interesting and urgent conversation today from Religion Media Centre. The number of students choosing to take Religious Studies at degree level is in decline at some universities. How can career advisers and schools help?

What should department leaders do to stop the decline in the number of students taking Religious Studies at degree level? Some suggest a clearer "pathway" towards a PGCE in RE might be the answer. #Religionmediacentre

The decline in student recruitment and availability of funding is not unique to a small group of universities or to Religious Studies as a subject. Social science departments are being merged and closed across the UK, say academics. #Religionmediacentre

A recurring theme in today's Religion Media Centre briefing: RE is not a marginal subject. It cultivates empathy, intercultural understanding and critical reflection, essential capacities for navigating an increasingly complex society.

Another key point raised: studying RE is often misunderstood as limiting career options. In reality, it develops analytical skills, empathy and cultural literacy, all qualities highly valued across sectors from law to public service.

Increasingly, teachers in Religious Education are coming from other subject backgrounds says Tim Hutchings on Religion Media Centre. If you're a new teacher in search of inspiration or just in need of a refresher, check out subject knowledge on RE:ONLINE reonline.org.uk/knowledge/
