RE
The intent of our RE curriculum is to deliver a curriculum which is accessible to all and that will maximise the outcomes for every child so that they know more, remember more and understand more. As a result of this, they will become independent and responsible members of a society who understand and explore big questions about life, to find out what people believe and what difference this makes to how they live, so that they can make sense of religion, reflecting on their own ideas and ways of living. By following The Birmingham Agreed Syllabus (2022) children learn about the 24 dispositions, or values. The dispositions encourage pupils to think about, and act upon, a growing understanding of their own faith or viewpoint, whilst acknowledging their neighbour’s perspective. Lessons focus on discussion and guidance to assist the formation of character-based judgements through the acquisition of knowledge. The syllabus acknowledges a complete spectrum of beliefs and views and all are accorded equal respect.
