RE
At Beaver Green Primary School we promote, support and encourage excellent practice in the teaching of Religious Education (RE). We have chosen to work alongside the Primary Knowledge Curriculum which is designed to be knowledge-rich, coherently sequenced and cumulatively structured to ensure that pupils develop a secure and meaningful understanding of religious and non-religious world views over time. The subject identifies and explores questions about human existence that have been asked since the dawn of time, offering children opportunities to develop their own personal knowledge. It aims to develop both academic understanding and respectful engagement with diverse perspectives.
Our school Rules and Values and key British Values such as tolerance and mutual respect run throughout our teaching of R.E. We are committed to providing our children with an exciting, positive and safe learning environment, in which they have the opportunity to develop their knowledge and understanding of religions and world-views. One where they can share their beliefs and experiences without fear of judgement or negativity, while contributing to their spiritual, moral, social and cultural development. Our pupils also have the opportunity to learn that there are those who do not hold religious beliefs and have their own philosophical perspectives.
At Beaver Green we immerse the children fully into investigating and engaging in deeper learning through the use of RE days.
