Religious Education

The National Curriculum states the legal requirement is that "Every state-funded school must offer a curriculum which is balanced and broadly based, and which:

• Promotes the spiritual, moral, cultural, mental and physical development of pupils at the school and of society, and:
• Prepares pupils at the school for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of later life."

  We follow and build upon  the Leicestershire Religious Literacy for All Agreed Syllabus for Religious Education which ensures children know about and understand a range of religions and worldviews, are able to express ideas and insights about the nature, significance and impact of religions and worldviews and gain skills to engage with religions and worldviews.    
We learn about and actively promote values, including British Values.  
Children enjoy developing critical thinking skills and learning about RE and world views and show their learning in many different ways.  Religious Education is also taught through the creative curriculum within school.  Children have enjoyed taking part in whole school RE days,  also within key stages and through critical thinking workshops. 
We have developed links with schools of different faiths and with whom we enjoy sharing our learning.
