RE

🧭 Exploring a Diverse World

Our RE curriculum reflects the rich tapestry of beliefs found in our local community and across the globe. Pupils learn about Christianity, Hindu Dharma, Islam, Judaism, Sikhism, and Buddhism—building respect and understanding for different ways of life.

🧠 Learning Through Enquiry

Children ask big questions like: • “Who should we follow?” • “Is life like a journey?” These questions help them explore values, beliefs, and traditions from multiple perspectives.

🧩 Connecting Learning to Life

We use the Mirror–Window–Door approach:

• Mirror – Reflecting on their own experiences.

• Window – Looking into the lives of others.

• Door – Applying new understanding to their own choices.

🌟 Preparing for a Multicultural Society

By learning about different faiths and worldviews, pupils develop:

• Empathy

• Tolerance

• Confidence to engage with diversity

📚 A Curriculum for Everyone

Our RE lessons are inclusive and ambitious, supporting all learners—including those with SEND and EAL—so every child can thrive and grow in understanding.

We use the Lancashire Agreed Syllabus.

Parents/carers have the right to withdraw their children from all or part of the Religious Education in accordance with Schedule 19 to the School Standards and Framework Act 1998. However, we hope that all parents will feel comfortable with the type of religious education being taught in our school.

In the first instance, parents who may wish to exercise this right should make an appointment with the Headteacher who will explore any concerns and discuss any impact that withdrawal may have on the child.
