RE in our school
Religious education in our school aims to enable every child to flourish and to live life in all its fullness. (John 10:10). It will help to educate children for dignity and respect, encouraging all to live well together. Our RE curriculum that aims to enable children to; acquire a deep knowledge and understanding of Christian belief and practice, explore key concepts and questions and explore a range of different religious beliefs and practises. RE is taught on a once weekly basis throughout the school in a variety of different ways. In addition to this, each year group visits a place of worship and we have a whole day dedicated to RE in the summer term. Religious education has a high profile role within our school and it forms a very important part of our Christian vision. In addition to this, RE contributes to pupils’ understanding of spiritual, moral, social and cultural development and British Values.
