R.E.
We follow the L.E.A. Syllabus and Guidelines for R.E., which gives the children opportunities to see how Christian ethics have moulded our present society. The children are encouraged to understand themselves and their relationships with others and also develop an understanding of other faiths and cultures, particularly Judaism and Hinduism. Spiritual awareness is developed through planned opportunities for pupils to imagine, reflect and explore.
Religious education is compulsory for all children, including those in the reception class who are less than five years old. Parents and carers may withdraw their child if they so wish, only after they have given written notice to the school governors.
