Intent

‘The principal aim of religious education is to explore what people believe and what difference this makes to how they live, so that pupils can gain the knowledge, understanding and skills needed to handle questions raised by religion and belief, reflecting on their own ideas and ways of living.’

— Cornwall Agreed Syllabus for Religious Education, 2020 —

Our Religious Education curriculum, adopted from the Cornwall Agreed Syllabus for Religious Education, 2020, aims to engage, inspire, challenge and encourage children. It seeks to equip children with the knowledge and skills to answer challenging questions, explore different religious beliefs, values and traditions and develop a more rigorous understanding of the numerous religious traditions, beliefs and practices that are followed in our multicultural society and around the world. We want children to know how religious education promotes discernment and enables them to combat prejudice, preparing them for adult life, employment and life-long learning.
