Religious Education

Our Intent

In a Catholic school, Religious Education serves to foster a deep encounter with Jesus Christ while respecting students' individual religious identities. It aims to assist parents in religious formation and contribute positively to society by promoting understanding and respect for different faiths, thereby fostering social cohesion. Religious education is central to the school's mission, providing a space for students to explore and understand their faith, love of God, and Christian worldview. It binds together the entire curriculum, offering students a framework to understand the unity and purpose of their education within a Catholic perspective, thereby serving as the foundation of the educational process.

Implementation

We implement it:

• Through the daily class and whole school prayers.
• Through daily reflections.
• Through whole school and key stage Masses.
• Through Religious Education lessons.
• Through Collective Worship.
• Through Catholic Social Teaching lessons
• Through celebrating events from the global calendar e.g. Refugees week, Family Fast Day etc
• Through supporting less fortunate and fundraising

Impact

The outcome of excellent religious education is religiously literate and consciously engaged

young people who have the knowledge, understanding, and skills – appropriate to their age

and capacity – to reflect spiritually, and think ethically and theologically, and who recognise the

demands of religious commitment in everyday life.
