Religious Education
Let the children come to me and do not stop them, because the Kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.
(Matthew 19:14)
To fulfil our Religious Education aims and objectives, we follow Day by Day - 'To Know You More Clearly'. This programme is recommended by the Diocese of Arundel and Brighton.
The Religious Education Directory
The Religious Education Directory has a clear framework for learning:
Expected outcomes are set for each age phase and indicate what pupils are expected to know, remember and be able to do.
Knowledge lenses which indicate what should be known by the end of each age phase. These are split into hear, believe, live and celebrate.
The ‘ways of knowing’ are the skills which develop as the children progress through their curriculum journey. These are split into understand, discern and respond.
Curriculum branches are the way the programme of study presents its model curriculum. There are six half-term branches for each half-term which are the same in each year group.
