This study aims to examine whether students consider a teacher’s religious belief has an effect on their teaching in the religious education classroom. This study found that the participant students do not consider their teachers’ religious beliefs to be of any threat or affect their teaching of religious education. But when breaking the answers into different categories can other results come to surface. One aspect of this study was to consider students’ religious beliefs and whether it can affect their opinions. The study found that the students’ opinions differed between students with religious belief and students with non-religious belief. Notably that students with a religious belief do not consider that the religious education and teaching could benefit from a teacher with a religious or a non-religious belief. However, it is essential to mention that the number of participants limits this study, therefore, the result cannot be considered on a national level.

It is important to add that a large amount of research is focused on students and methods of teaching religious education, however, research regarding the effect of a teachers’ religious belief in the religious education classroom is still not broadly explored or thoroughly studied. Therefore, this subject is yet to be developed and expanded.
