Religion and Worldviews<\/h2>

Intent<\/h3>

As a Church of England School, our Religion and Worldviews lessons are important times when children can explore and better understand their own and other people\u2019s experiences of Christian and other world faiths. The children explore human life, its aspirations, times of celebration, problems, and challenges.\u00a0<\/p>

The Futura intent for Religion and Worldviews is that all children develop an awareness of major world religions and world views, including their impact on society and culture. Our pupils should be able to appreciate and respect faiths and beliefs which may be different to their own, which will equip them for their adult life, employment as well as lifelong learning. Through these lessons, children will be able to engage with challenging questions of meaning and purpose, which will equip them to continue their studies of Religion and Worldviews in secondary school where they will deepen their understanding of different world faiths as well as more general philosophical and ethical questions. Our pupils will be given the opportunity to develop their own religious, spiritual and philosophical beliefs in a safe environment. Children will be able to reflect, consider, analyse, interpret and evaluate different issues which are prevalent in our society, whilst also promoting mutual respect and tolerance in line with British Values.\u00a0\u00a0Our curriculum is ambitious for all and strives to address inclusion and disadvantage in its intent and implementation.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>

Managing the right to withdraw<\/strong><\/h3>

The current Education Act makes provision for pupils and staff to withdraw from Religion and Worldviews lessons. Staff and parents of pupils wishing to exercise this right will be asked to express their wish in writing to the Headteacher.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
