Constitution and Working Arrangements
Kingston SACRE approved an updated constitution in July 2025 and is seeking to increase Muslim representation.
Kingston's Standing Advisory Council for Religious Education (SACRE) approved an updated constitution in July 2025. This document outlines the council's governance and operational procedures. The SACRE is also currently seeking to increase Muslim representation to better reflect the borough's diverse religious makeup, as Muslims constituted 8% of the population in 2021.
Increased Muslim representation could influence the religious education curriculum by bringing a Muslim perspective to the review and development of the locally agreed syllabus. The SACRE advises the local authority on religious education matters, reviews the syllabus, and considers head teacher applications.
