Children will learn about individual worldviews – how one person understands life based on their own beliefs, values and experiences.

Children will also learn about communal worldviews – those shared by communities who live or work together with shared beliefs and values.

 

Each year group learns about RE by looking at a question for a term and approaching it from different religions or worldview. Children will use big questions to find out more in 3 disciplinary areas.

 

Theology – study of God or gods. We will look at different artefacts and resources to help with this.

 

Philosophy – thinking carefully and asking big questions about life, truth, right and wrong choices. We will also explore philosophers from the past and their work.

 

Human and Social Science – how people live out their beliefs in everyday life through different cultures and societies. We may have visitors to school to answer some of our questions.
