Religious Education

"Just as a candle cannot burn without fire, men cannot live without a spiritual life.” Budda

In our school the teaching of Religious Education is an integral part of the curriculum in developing an individual’s knowledge and understanding of the religions and beliefs which form part of contemporary society. Religion and beliefs inform our values and are reflected in what we say and how we behave. At St John the Evangelist CE Primary School, Our Religious Education curriculum provokes challenging questions about the ultimate meaning and purpose of life, beliefs about God, the self and the nature of reality, issues of right and wrong, and what it means to be human. It develops pupils’ knowledge and understanding of Christianity, of other principal religions, other religious traditions and world-views that offer answers to questions such as these. RE also contributes to our pupils’ personal development and wellbeing, and to community cohesion by promoting mutual respect and tolerance in a diverse society.
