Religion and Worldviews – Curriculum information

Our vision for Religion and Worldviews, at Broadacre, is to create tolerant and respectful citizens of the future. We aim to build a culture of understanding in which our children can express their thoughts and ideas on religions and worldviews, as well as to foster the British values of respect and acceptance.

We will provide all pupils with quality teaching of religious education to ensure that they gain and utilise the skills needed to engage seriously and sensitively with religions and worldviews.

In Religion and Worldviews, children at Broadacre will:

  • know and understand some contrasting religions and worldviews
  • develop their respect and acceptance of other peoples’ ideas, religions and cultures
  • be given the opportunity to develop their skills of self-reflection and their abilities to express considered opinions
