RE Intent
Our vision is to develop children’s spirituality, sense of identity and belonging, which will help them flourish within their communities and as citizens in a diverse, changing society.
All planning should underpin this vision through:
- Providing the opportunities for immersive experiences in diverse cultures and religions because it provides children with the cultural capital to questions, fostering personal reflection and spiritual development.
- To encourage pupils to explore their own beliefs (whether they are religious or non-religious), and how these impact on personal, institutional and social ethics; and to express their personal responses because this builds resilience to anti-democratic or extremist narratives while providing an opportunity for developing their own spirituality and beliefs.
