Intent

As a Catholic School, Religious Education lies at the heart of our curriculum.

Religious education in Catholic schools aims to promote:

  • knowledge and understanding of the Catholic faith and life in Christ;
  • knowledge and understanding of the response of faith to questions about human life, its origin and purpose;
  • the skills required to engage in examination of and reflection upon religious belief and practice, including awareness of and respect for the beliefs and practices of other faith groups and religious communities.

Implementation

Our RE Curriculum is defined by the Archdiocese of Birmingham and is entitled ‘Learning and Growing as People of God’.

Adaptations are made to the curriculum so that it is accessible to all and so that no child is disadvantaged by Special Educational Needs or Disability.
