Annual Borough Sixth Form RE Conference<br />
“The RE Conference was an interesting, fun<br />
and thought provoking day. I enjoyed listening<br />
to different viewpoints on current issues and it<br />
helped me increase my understanding of ethical<br />
issues”.<br />
Maisie Mullen (year 12)<br />
“It was enlightening in terms of experiencing the cohesion of<br />
different faiths as it is quite a contrast to what you see in the<br />
media, which can be rather biassed. Through the conference<br />
we could better understand different faiths through real like<br />
experience.”<br />
Ali Dhanani (year 12)<br />
<strong>Cranford</strong> Community College is recognised for its outstanding delivery of Religious<br />
Education and works closely with SACRE and the University of London Institute<br />
of Education to organise this annual event for Post 16 students across the Authority.<br />
The ‘Annual Borough Sixth Form RE Conference’ was hosted by CCC for the 5th consecutive<br />
year. Students from Hounslow Borough Sixth forms were able to discuss, debate and reflect<br />
on the theme of: “Religion: oppressive or liberating?”<br />
The day consisted of interactive workshops run by students from the IOE and Roehampton<br />
University. Students were able visit a variety of different workshops which ranged from ‘’<br />
Is tolerance an oppressive force?’, ‘Is atheism as oppressive as they say religion is?’ and<br />
‘Is religious upbringing indoctrination? Once students had an opportunity to discuss these<br />
questions in small groups, they were then invited to participate in a Q&A session with expert<br />
panellists.<br />
The day concluded with a themed panel discussion in the Concert<br />
Hall with community representatives from various faith<br />
backgrounds. The panellists represented the<br />
major world faiths, including<br />
Judaism, Islam, Sikhism,<br />
Christianity, and Hinduism<br />
and students were able to gain<br />
an insight on religious views<br />
on questions such as ‘Why does<br />
God send people to hell’, ‘How<br />
can you know you are in the ‘right’<br />
religion?’ and ‘Is God sexist?’<br />
Students left the conference positive<br />
and having enjoyed a day where they<br />
could reflect on some of the bigger<br />
questions.<br />
