Religious Education

Through the study of religious education, our pupils will  know about and understand Christianity as a living faith that influences the lives of people worldwide and as the religion that has most shaped British culture and heritage. They will know and understand about other major world religions and non-religious worldviews, their impact on society, culture and the wider world. Develop their own spiritual/philosophical convictions, exploring and enriching their own beliefs and values.
