This paper aims at exploring the development of religious education and personal and social education after the 1988 Education Reform Act in England.
We conducted a survey in September 1993 sending questionnaires to all the local education authorities in England. The questionnaires inquire about(1) thesituations of publication of agreed syllabi for religious education, (2) the practice of personal and social education, (3) the publication of guideline for personal and social education and(4) the relationship between religious education and personal and social education. On the bases of the data returned from 65 LEAs, we tried to survey agreed syllabi for religious education and guidelines for personal and social education from these local education authorities. By analyzing these materials we note the roles of religious education and personal and social education in reaching towards the aims of the Education Reform Act.
