# Jonathan Dimbleby ‘Big Debate’ on Religion in Schools

I was a ‘witness’ on a Teachers’ TV programme debating religion in schools recently. You can now [see it online](http://www.teachers.tv/video/24057 "The Big Debate"). The panel included Richard Dawkins and Barry Sheerman MP, chair of the Commons education select committee and the audience has a very varied range of views. The format of the programme is really good – if only there was more mainstream TV like it.
