The Religious Education Department is concerned with pupils making meaning of their experiences in order to give them purpose in their lives.
Our aims are to: aid pupils to reflect upon their experiences and of the mysteries of life; to develop an understanding of the influence of beliefs; develop the ability to make informed judgements that are made through reasoning and thereby the pupils should develop confidence in their own beliefs and values.
