Religious Education

In Religious Education, we show strength through studying challenging elements to the Religious Education curriculum and teaching approaches are adapted to support these challenges, these include but are not limited to; worked examples; debating and storytelling. Students are expected to develop a resilient mindset in Religious Education lessons to help overcome some of these challenges and approaches to tasks.

In Religious Education, we show pride through encouraging the promotion of mutual respect for each other and groups to work collaboratively. Students and staff model the importance of fairness and self-understanding, feeling confident about their own beliefs while appreciating the views of others without prejudging one’s response.

In Religious Education, we show unity through applying problem solving skills and teamwork; these are fundamental to Religious Education through creative thinking, discussion, explaining and presenting ideas.  Students are always encouraged to use SHAPE when communicating with others and explaining concepts to each other.  Self and peer review are important to enable pupils to have an accurate grasp of where they are and how they need to improve through think, pair, share.
