SACRE Collective Worship Guidance

What does 'wholly or mainly of a broadly Christian character' mean?

Firstly it is important to note that the law does not say 'of a broadly Christian content or style'.

• It does not mean creating a pretence of Christian worship.
  
• It does not need to contain any elements of Christian ritual or liturgy.
  
• It can mean incorporating elements that Christians might recognise from their worship, e.g. songs, music, stories, learning from the good example of others, readings from holy books.
  
• It does mean promoting values that Christians believe to be important. These may be, and often are, values held to be important by other faiths as well.
