Curriculum intent

Curriculum sequence/plan/model:

Religious Education – Learning Journey

Curriculum opportunities: Key Stage 3

Curriculum implementation:

As an Academy we have a range of clear standards and expectations of our pupils however each subject area has its own individual practices and habits that ensure that it can function to its optimum.

Curriculum delivery: 

Our students are taught not only about the beliefs and values of different groups around the world, but also to blossom their own beliefs and are given the opportunity to develop their own opinions and match them with people in the classroom. We strive for students to regularly celebrate religious backgrounds and teach how to respect other cultures.
