The study investigated the implementation of Christian Religious Education Curriculum (CREC) in Anglican Church of Uganda founded primary schools in Eastern Uganda.The assessment was based on a qualitative investigation that employed three methods to collect data: document analysis, classroom observation, and interviews.The results showed that; the aims and objectives of CRE are to inculcate moral ethical and spiritual integrity, tolerance, and human fellowship.Reasons for the implementation of CRE in Primary Schools are: to offer a framework for understanding the context of moral living, to develop students' abilities to improve on their moral lives and understand their own religion and its values, The challenges hindering the implementation of Christian religious education curriculum in Primary Schools are; Teachers focused their greatest attention on measuring written works especially in cognitive attainment rather than affective and psychomotor behavior. Inadequate Religious education textbooks, Lack of induction training and refresher courses for teachers of Christian ReligiousEducation in primary Schools.It is recommended that the Government of Uganda should accept Christian Religious Education to be taught and examined as a separate subject in primary School.Support supervision by the Inspectors to ensure that teachers prepare Christian Religious Education and teach as planned by the NCDC.The ministry of Education and Sports working hand in hand with the NCDC, and foundation bodies should ensure that regular workshops and trainings for all teachers of Christian Religious Education are conducted to empower them with the new methods and skills of handling the subject.
