Schools trust failing to teach Religious Education Schools trust failing to teach Religious Education 28 minutes ago futureacademies.org An academy trust in London has been accused of failing to uphold its legal requirement to teach Religious Education in its primary schools. Parents and staff at Millbank Academy in Westminster, part of the Future Academies trust, have reported that the subject is not taught at the school, and it is also missing from pupil timetables. Despite the evidence, when questioned by the Department for Education (DfE) the trust claimed RE was being taught, and the DfE has taken no further action.
