At Starks Field Primary School, Religious Education plays a pivotal role in helping to develop respectful children who embrace the British value of tolerance towards others. We aim to instill within them the skills and values from world religions and non-religious world views, to positively contribute to the diverse world we live in.
By undertaking an enquiry-based approach, children are given the opportunities to delve into the many faiths and religious strands present within our school community.
In lessons children are encouraged to share their own beliefs and religious traditions and draw comparisons between their own experiences and those of their peers. They are also encouraged to consider wider world concepts and consider the effect these ideas have on our society.
Throughout the school year, each year group will have the opportunity to visit a place of worship/meet practitioners from different faiths. Such opportunities help to bring the children’s learning to life and gives them a platform to ask questions in a safe environment.
