Religious Education
Please find below the information for the Religious Education (RE) Learning Pathway in our curriculum that has been devised by our teachers for our children. Our Religious Education curriculum is supplemented with a number of resources, including working with our local places of worship and the Kent County Council (KCC) resources.
Our RE curriculum is designed to progressively develop children’s skills, knowledge and understanding of what people believe and what difference it makes to how they live. They need to ask fundamental questions in life which lead to their own spiritual knowledge, understanding and beliefs.
The children will have the opportunity to:
- Develop an awareness of spiritual and moral issues in life experiences within an inclusive and nurturing ethos.
- Develop an understanding of what it means to be committed to a religious tradition showing a developed moral and social understanding giving the skills of tolerance and respect, to handle questions raised by religion.
- Reflect on their own experiences and ideas to develop a personal response to the fundamental questions of life, through an engaging and inspiring curriculum, helping them to grow in showing respect for others.
- Consider their place in society, using their RE knowledge and understanding to inspire them in social action and change both locally and globally.
