At Whittington we plan our religious education curriculum in accordance with the Local Education Authority's Agreed Syllabus.
We help to develop the children's knowledge and understanding of the major world faiths. Children reflect on what it means to have a faith and to develop their own spiritual knowledge and understanding. We ensure the children learn
from
religions as well as
about religions.
By using a variety of teaching and learning styles in RE we enable the children to build on their own experiences and extend their knowledge and understanding of religious traditions. We use their experiences at religious festivals such as Easter, Diwali, Passover etc. to develop their religious thinking .We organise visits to local places of worship and invite representatives of local religious groups to come into school to talk to the children.
