Religious Education (RE)
Through faith, resilience, tolerance and harmony, we want our RE curriculum to build a community where each individual is valued and will thrive. They will be curious about the world around them and open to the differences of culture, opinion, belief and values that they are exposed to through our diverse scheme of work. Children will grow in wisdom and knowledge as they develop the life skills associated with effective RE pedagogy.
Anglican characteristics will be central to and embedded in the whole school curriculum and will present contrast and comparison with different religions based around key questions
RE In Action
We use the Southwark Diocesan Board of Education RE Syllabus to ensure that we cover all major religions and children are also encouraged to celebrate their unique identities throughout the year – such as celebrating a particular religious festival when it occurs on the calendar.
Teachers make use of quality artefacts and artistic resources to assist children in their learning. Enhancement is provided through strong links with our parish church, visits to relevant places, having experts visit the school and relating the topic of study to world current affairs when suitable.
