Religious Education

RE

Our curriculum ensures our children explore Christian, Islamic and Hindu stories and other principal religions in local, national and global contexts, through balanced and well-informed lessons that are taught as part of our theme days each half term.

Children will engage with challenging questions about religious life, different festivals, places of worship, sacred writing, knowledge and belief, meaning and purpose. They will learn to listen to, challenge and respect the ideas of their peers and others using the Cambridgeshire RE Agreed Syllabus.

Our children will develop their sense of identity and belonging, which will enable them to flourish individually within their communities and as respectful citizens in a diverse world

 

The right to withdraw from RE

In England, parents and carers have the right to withdraw their children from RE. We would hope that you would contact us, head@hartfordjuniorschool.org in the first instance so that we can discuss concerns and together put alternative arrangements in place to support your child(ren).

You will find more information on the right to withdraw and how to handle an application at https://www.natre.org.uk/
