Religious Education

Our Curriculum Intent in RE is to prepare our students to navigate adult life in a confident way, by exploring an increasingly diverse society of world religions and ethical issues, discovering truths of different beliefs and faiths, with a specific focus on Christianity. This is in order to experience life to the fullest with awe and wonder about the world in which we live.
 

Literacy and Numeracy

• RE improves literacy by introducing students to a wide range of specialist vocabulary used by world religions and society today. Assessments and essays in all key stages, ensure students are able to achieve the highest levels of written communication.
• Numeracy is used across the RE curriculum, for example by handling chronology across the B.C.E. - C.E boundary, percentages for populations of religious believers or charitable contributions and use of charts such as timelines, maps, graphs and pie charts to present data.
