Hindu Academy



Hindu Academy aims to promote Comprehensive and Rational vision of Hinduism incorporating ideas of Religious Pluralism, Spiritual Humanism and resonance between Science and Spirituality. It operates with the education establishments by working with schools colleges and universities as well as in the mainstream media and on SKY channel 807 (Aastha International)

The Hindu Academy co-ordinate's and run's classes teaching Hinduism at GCSE and Advanced levels in many cities in England. Over the past few years many of their candidates have scored maximum possible marks in Hinduism modules at Advanced or Advanced Subsidiary levels. Their classes are run by their volunteer teachers at local temples and community centres. These classes provide a structured study of Hinduism that benefits the Hindu community. Many of their teachers are also active members on various SACRE boards across the country. The Hindu Academy acts as Hindu advisors at both national and local levels, offering Hindu input to some awarding bodies, as well as the DCSF and the Religious Education Council of England and Wales.

The Hindu Academy facilitates assemblies on Hinduism at many schools, and participates at sixth form seminars or workshops on RE. They continue to offer training programmes for RE teachers for various local authorities at a dozen or so universities regularly. CPD: Last year they conducted a day seminar on Hinduism at the Neasden temple, attracting over 300 RE teachers and was a great success.
