Our Religious Education curriculum helps our pupils develop their tolerance of others via their understanding of other people's religions and beliefs. Our pupils learn about key religious and non-religious beliefs and consider these alongside their own thoughts and ideas about the world they are growing up in via key questions.
Religious Education – Curriculum
We follow the Shropshire Agreed Syllabus (updated in October 2021) which is the basis for our curriculum. Our pupils explore different religions through a range of activities and experiences which help them retain and develop their understanding. As they move through their learning journey our children will build on their knowledge to consider deeper questions through thematic units where religions are compared and contrasted. We focus on four religions: Christianity, Islam, Judaism and Hinduism, alongside some non-religious faiths too.
Our Whole School Long Term Plan
Links to the wider community
We are keen to build and create links within the local and wider community. This will help us provide our children with rich and varied experiences and a chance to give back and be an active part of their community. As such we visit our local church and invite visitors into school, whether that is from the local church, or charities such as Checkpoint, the local faith communities and so on.
