Religious Education

We follow the Lincolnshire Agreed Syllabus for Religious Education. Our teaching promotes the spiritual, moral, social and cultural development of our pupils. It reflects the fact that the religious traditions in Great Britain are in the main Christian whilst taking account of the teaching and practices of other principal religions. In Lincolnshire, the main religions are Christianity and Islam therefore a larger portion of RE curriculum time is given to these religions as this reflects our local context. Our teaching enables pupils to acquire knowledge and understanding of religious beliefs, attitudes, practices and rituals. They will also develop their own beliefs and values. We ensure that children go out into the local community and see local religious buildings and meet and talk to people of different faiths in order for them to develop an understanding of the wider world.

Parents have the right to withdraw their children from all or part of R.E. if they prefer.
