Guiding Rationale

In lessons, children are taught a systematic presentation (the basics and principles) of the Catholic Faith.  Teaching is realistic, has achievable aims and relates to the children’s lives, both inside and outside of school. As teachers, we are aware of the diversity of backgrounds, family relationships and faith experiences of our pupils and are sensitive in the way we approach discussions based on these themes.

The outcome of religious education is: “Religiously literate young people who have the knowledge, understanding and skills – appropriate to their age and capacity – to think spiritually and theologically, and who are aware of the demands of religious commitment in everyday life.” (Religious Education Curriculum Directory 1996)
