Intent

At Lord Street School we aim to develop children’s understanding of the different religions, cultures and beliefs around us today. The curriculum is designed to ensure that the children fully develop their critical thinking skills alongside their religious knowledge and is linked to the promotion of British Values and our ethos.

Implementation

Using the Lancashire and Blackpool Agreed Syllabus for RE, our children will learn about all the major religions building their knowledge over time. This is an enquiry based curriculum, where the children will focus on the concepts of religious practices, festivals, books and people. It will enable children to build upon and reinforce prior learning, making connections and develop subject specific vocabulary

Impact

The successful approach results in a fun, engaging and high quality Religious Education, that provides the children with the foundations and knowledge for understanding the world’s major religion. From this our children will develop and promote a respectful understanding of other’s beliefs.
