This document can be used in a variety of ways. The exemplars can be used to support practitioners to consider real and relevant contexts which could be used to develop learners’ skills between numeracy and religious and moral education. It can also be used to support interdisciplinary learning through planning of particular projects or school events. It could also be used to support discussions about the ways numeracy and religious and moral education skills are taught and what the expectations are on learners working within each of the levels. It is important that practitioners highlight to learners the skills they are developing in both numeracy and religious and moral education.
