TEACHING SRE

A quick guide for new SRE teachers in NSW Government schools.

This is a leaflet designed for people who are involved in teaching SRE. It outlines the basics for new SRE teachers: things like how you become an SRE teacher, what to do before you begin teaching, how to enter school property and using the right language. There’s a section on where to get help too. To obtain copies of the leaflet contact the Executive Officer, Sue Sneddon p:02 4979 1335, e:execofficer@iccoreis.asn.au.
