Standing Advisory Council on Religious Education (SACRE)

Every Local Education Authority (LEA) is required by law to have a SACRE. It's origins go back to the Education Act of 1944, but the Education Reform Act 1988 and the Education Act 1996 strengthened its place in an LEA.

The functions of SACRE are:

To advise the LEA on matters connected with religious worship in schools without a religious foundation;
To advise the LEA on Religious Education taught in accordance with the Agreed Syllabus;
To consider, and decide upon, determination applications made by Headteachers;
To publish an annual report;
To require the LEA to review its Agreed Syllabus.
