"Promoting Personal Excellence"
RELIGIOUS EDUCATION
 |
In our Catholic school the Religion department plays a key role in helping pupils to know and understand religious beliefs, practices and concepts and also respect the right of others who hold beliefs different from their own.
Pupils in Key Stage 3 follow the new ‘Fully Alive’ catholic religious education programme. Pupils learn key Christian teachings about God and are introduced to the bible. They explore the Christian church, its worship and prayer and examine the beliefs of two denominations. They also study at least two of the main world religions.
