In PRE students explore major questions, that humans have asked since the beginning of time, and consider how different religions and frameworks have responded to these questions.
Vision/Intent
In lessons, students are asked to apply their experience of the world to the key concepts studied. Students will be pushed to be inquisitive and opinionated whilst maintaining respect and tolerance. Students develop a range of skills and abilities in this course: critical thinking, communication, evaluation and problem-solving.
All students in Year 7-9 follow the course set by the local Standing Advisory Council on Religious Education (SACRE) and learn to appreciate amazing similarities and fascinating differences in the six major world religions: Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism and Sikhism.
