R.

E Policy

Subject Leader– Lorraine Whiting

Policy Statement-
We see RE in school as being different from other curriculum areas as in that
what is taught is determined by local agreement –The Norfolk Agreed
Syllabus .
We believe that through careful planning and delivery of this curriculum RE
should be able to promote respect, understanding and tolerance of all peoples
and beliefs as well as developing skills in enquiry, information gathering,
critical and creative thinking skills.

Aims :
1. For pupils to develop knowledge of the principal religions represented in
Great Britain
2. For pupils to start to explore how these religions influence the lives of the
people who embrace them
3. For pupils to become curious and reflective about the world in which they
live.
4. For pupils to develop a positive attitude towards others and respect the
right to hold beliefs different from their own.

This policy is written with regard to The Norfolk Agreed Syllabus, and
our Teaching and Learning Policy, Race Equality Policy, P.H.S.E Policy
and Equal Opportunity Policy.

The RE Curriculum :

Knowledge, Skills and Understanding:

• Learning About Religion


• Learning From Religion

Areas Of Study:

• Believing
• Belonging
• Prayer and Worship
• Leaders and Teachers
• Stories and Books
• Celebrations
• Symbols and Artefacts

To ensure continuity throughout the curriculum we have used guidance from


The Norfolk Agreed Syllabus (non-statutory advice) It is through these units of
study alongside our cross-curricular work that we endeavour to include the
various strands of the Norfolk Agreed Syllabus.
Where possible teaching will include first hand experiences eg. visits,
artefacts, dance, drama , music, food and visitors.
It is acknowledged throughout the teaching of RE that each faith is pluralistic
and that there are wide variations of belief and practice within them.

Recreation Road Infant School recognises the right of parents to
withdraw their children from Collective worship and RE. (DFE Circular
