Religious Education

We believe it is important to plan the learning journey of the children from Year R to Year 6. Even though we are an Infant School, this doesn’t stop us planning what the children will learn when they leave us. This is vitally important. As 3 schools, we have joined together to produce a joint intention of what we want the children to learn. The following statements were produced by our subject teams in September 2019.

End of Year 2

By the time our children leave our school in Year 2, they will have learnt about different religions, cultures and celebrations.  They will have an awareness of the importance of special books, locations and people.  They will be able to reflect on religious concepts and start to apply them to find their place in the world.

 

End of Year 6

By the time our children leave our school they will have a greater understanding of concepts that are unique to Hinduism, Islam and Christianity.  RE will ensure that our children are both respectful and tolerant to people of a different background to themselves.  They will develop the skills of evaluation, reflection and will start thinking about religion and its place in our modern world.
