RE

​

At Hallam Fields we want to give children the knowledge and understanding of many different religions so that they can compare religions and be tolerate, respectful and understanding of others. We plan our curriculum to encompass a diverse range of worldviews, drawing on lived experiences to offer an authentic portrayal of beliefs.

​​

RE at Hallam Fields explores the important role that religious and non-religious world views play in all human life. Children learn about the beliefs and practices of different religions and are encouraged to respect the religious and cultural differences of others. As they progress through the school, they explore and consider many different answers to questions about meaning and purpose in life, beliefs about God, issues of right and wrong and what it means to be human. We aim to prepare our children for life in a diverse world and allow them the opportunity to reflect on their own beliefs and values.

​

RE is taught weekly for thirty minutes. The principal aim of our planning is to engage children in enquiring into significant human questions, which religion and worldviews address. They develop the understanding and skills needed to appreciate responses to these questions, as well as reflecting on their own ideas and ways of living.  We often invite visitors into school to talk about their religion and we try to use religious artefacts and interactive visits to places of worship to enrich the experiences we give our children.
