3.2 Surrey Youth SACRE
Surrey Youth SACRE has continued to meet regularly since its inauguration in March 2005.
This exciting innovation has grown to include pupils from a number of schools aged 11-16
representing: Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, and Humanist perspectives. The
Surrey Youth SACRE is an ideal forum for ascertaining pupils’ perceptions on their Religious
Education and allows them to explore issues of faith amongst young people living in
Surrey.

This year the Youth SACRE discussed and then met with the statutory Surrey SACRE to
present their views on community cohesion and the development of the Surrey Social
Inclusion Framework. The student responses indicated a deep consideration of the
significance of faith perspectives on social issues and an appreciation of the values of
diversity and equality.
