Religious Education

Intent

At Whoberley Hall, we believe that it is important for all our pupils to learn from and about religion, so that they can respect and understand the world around them.

Through our Religious Education lessons, we aim to deliver a rich and varied curriculum, which allows us to develop the pupil’s knowledge and understanding of the major world faiths, and to address fundamental questions such as the meaning of life and the existence of a divine spirit. Our curriculum is designed to use creativity, imagination, discussion, debate and enquiry. Pupils will develop the ability to make reasoned and informed judgements about religious and moral issues.  Our children will learn to appreciate the way that religious beliefs shape life and behaviour, develop the ability to make reasoned and informed judgements about religious and moral issues and enhance their spiritual, moral and cultural development.

We use the National Curriculum guidance for teaching and learning in RE, as well as the local SACRE agreed syllabus.

Our intent is that our pupils become accepting, resilient and inquisitive learners.
