The mission of the Irish Centre for Religious Education (ICRE) is to inform and support good practice in teaching and learning, research, partnership, and innovation in the field of religious education. The ICRE engages with its national and international partners to develop solutions to common challenges such as: developing intercultural and interreligious approaches to teaching RE (Religious Education); supporting the use of digital pedagogies; contributing to the contested discourse about the place of RE within school; promoting religious and cultural literacy as part of active citizenship, and providing continuing professional development initiatives for school leaders, teachers of RE, and school chaplains.
