“Learning together, achieving together and building foundations in Christ” 

The aims of the RE department is to enable students to develop a fundamental understanding of religious beliefs and practices, whilst also encouraging the spiritual and moral development of each individual student. 

Learning together: RE teachers provide a stimulating curriculum, within a purposeful environment, that enriches the learning of the student. Our students are encouraged to be confident and resilient learners in order to rise to the challenges they will encounter, within the school, the community and beyond.

Achieving together: The RE department aims to instill a sense of aspiration in the student through positive attitudes and high expectations. Students can expect a high focus on developing religious literacy and a consistent approach to excellent progress for all.

Building foundations: The RE department works in harmony with the school Chaplain to promote the values, virtues and ethos that shape our students' character and moral perspective, through the teachings of the Catholic Church.

In Christ: The RE department places the values that Christ taught us at the centre of all that we do. This means integrating Gospel values given by Christ himself and the teachings of the Catholic Church into every aspect of learning, teaching and the totality of school life. We aim to provide a nurturing environment for the spiritual development of all students regardless of their faith. It is an act of respect and compassion that our curriculum helps them to develop their own spiritual growth and reflect on the nature of their own religious identity.
