Primary School Scripture Curriculum and Training

EV Church SRE teachers use a variety of approved programs/curricula.

EV Church uses curriculum from CEP Connect and GodSpace. A full explanation of the teaching material can be found at CEP Connect or GodSpace.

EV Church is committed to the ongoing training of our Scripture Teachers. This list outlines the training courses offered to our teachers. For further information about our SRE programs or to ask questions please contact EV SRE Coordinator at [email protected].

At the beginning of each calendar year all curriculum will be reviewed for suitability by the EV SRE Coordinator.

Authorisation and Complaints Process

Process for authorisation of an SRE teacher:

Prior to initial authorisation a teacher will:

  1. Complete the EV Ministry application form.
  2. Have their WWC number “cleared” by church.
  3. Read the EV Church Code of Conduct for Working with Children and Youth.
  4. Complete the Safe Ministry Leader Training Module.
  5. Meet with the Church SRE coordinator to read and understand the SRE Teacher Handbook.

To renew authorisation:

  1. The Church SRE coordinator will confirm that the WWC clearance is still valid.
  2. The SRE teacher will re-read the EV Code of Conduct for working with Children/ Youth
  3. Meet with the Church SRE Coordinator to review the teacher’s understanding of the content of the SRE Teacher Handbook.

All authorised SRE teachers will:

  • Wear an identification badge.
  • Provide the school with a letter containing relevant contact information.
  • Review their teaching practices through mentor support and self-reflection. This teacher review process will guide the process for ongoing teacher training and the topics identified will be included in the annual assurance to the Department of Education.

Complaints Process

  1. If a parent has a concern or question about SRE they are best to approach their child’s classroom teacher. 
  2. The Classroom teacher will then contact the SRE teacher or Protestant SRE Coordinator to discuss the complaint.
    • If the complaint can be easily resolved, the classroom teacher will inform the parent of the resolution. The SRE teacher informs the EV Church SRE Coordinator of the complaint and it’s resolution. If possible, it is best that this be done within 7 days.
    • If the complaint cannot be easily resolved, the SRE teacher will contact the School Protestant SRE Coordinator and the EV Church SRE Coordinator to seek advice. This must be done within 48 hours of the issue being raised with them. It is expected that steps be taken towards resolving the complaint within 7 days.

This document will be reviewed annually. Last reviewed: April 2025.
