Struggling to teach the Bible when
you don't even understand it yourself?
Children finding RE the low-point of their week?
Want to see the Bible unlocked and brought to life?
Want to see children running to RE lessons?
Our team consists of over 350 trained Bible Explorer presenters in the UK.
Bible Explorer is an educational programme taught exclusively in schools to
children in Key Stage 2 years 5 & 6. There is a series of five one hour
lessons for the Old Testament and five one hour lessons for the New
Testament. The aim of Bible Explorer is to teach children the storyline of
the Bible - the big picture. Bible Explorer is non-denominational,
non-confessional and non-conversionary.
Bible Explorer uses storytelling, drama, videos, multi-media and more to
ensure that all learning types (audio, visual and kinaesthetic) connect with
the subject matter. The children are taught a set of keywords and handsigns
that help them to remember the storyline (for example, the Old Testament
begins "Creation - Fall - Flood").
Above all Bible Explorer is fun, it gets children excited about RE and
helps them to discover that the Bible isn't a boring, old, irrelevant book.
"Brilliant! A vivid way to explore the Old Testament. The pupils
really enjoy learning in such a lively and varied way. A definite
highlight in the year 5 curriculum."
Natasha Patrick, year 5 teacher, Forest & Sandridge School
"Very many thanks for running Bible Explorer at out school. The
children really enjoyed it - much better than usual RE!"
Sue Worringham, head teacher, Lacock Primary School
"I never knew the Bible was that exciting!"

"I never knew you could have that much fun learning about the
Bible!"
Year 5 pupil
The ideal location for a Bible Explorer lesson is the school hall so that
there's plenty of space, but it can be taught in a classroom if it's
possible to clear all of the furniture out of the way. In addition to one
hour for the lesson about 15 minutes is needed before and after to set up
and pack away.
There is no charge for Bible Explorer though schools are invited
to make a donation to Bible Explorer's parent charity
Walk
Thru the Bible Ministries . The only thing the school need to do
is photocopy a set of funsheets for each child on the course.
