Primary School

R.E

R.E is not about promoting any one belief, but about helping children understand the diverse ways people find meaning and live their lives.

 

What do children learn about?

Major world religions (e.g. Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Judaism, Buddhism, Sikhism)
Other worldviews, including non-religious beliefs like Humanism
Religious stories, festivals, places of worship, symbols, and rituals
Moral and philosophical questions (e.g. What is right and wrong? Why do people pray? What happens when we die?)
Diversity and similarities within and across religions
How beliefs affect people’s actions, choices, and communities
 

How is RE taught?

RE is often taught through stories, discussions, art, music, drama, visits to places of worship, and talking to visitors from different faiths.
