Curriculum Intent

The Religious Education curriculum prepares our students to be the voice of their future. This is achieved through a curriculum which aims to inspire students to become theologians and philosophers who can make critical and balanced judgements about questions of meaning and purpose through developing religious literacy in terms of vocabulary and conceptual understanding. Through a knowledge rich curriculum, students acquire an in depth understanding of the core vocabulary and theological beliefs of the six major world religions and how these beliefs influence religious believers in their daily practice today.
