R.E.
At North Star 180, we work to offer a broad and rich RE curriculum using Twinkl Planit. A curriculum that provides a high-quality, coherent and progressive experience of the subject. We aim for children to know about and understand a range of religions and world views. We encourage children to think critically about a variety of issues and develop ways of responding to them.
During their time in Primary, your child will learn about the 6 main world religions: Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism and Sikhism. They will explore each religion and each year build upon their learning about beliefs, rituals and lifestyles of people of faith.
Areas of learning.
Our early years and key stage one learners will be exploring topics such as;
– Places of worship
– Caring for others
– Rules and routines
Key stage two learners will be learning about;
– Religious signs and symbols
