Religious Education

Religious Education shares with other subjects the task of helping children to acquire the skills, knowledge and attitudes for their personal development and their life in society. It also makes a distinctive contribution to the curriculum in directing attention to the religious understanding of life, involving reflection on human existence, exploring religious language and studying a variety of religious traditions. Through Religious Education the children will develop self-awareness, reflective skills, relationships with others and the experience of the natural world.
Parents have the right to withdraw their children from Religious Education and, if they wish to do so, are advised to discuss this with the Head Teacher.
