Religious Education

Religious Education is an academically rigorous subject which makes a distinctive contribution to pupils’ overall knowledge. Over the time at Ox Close, children are involved in learning, which provokes challenging questions about meaning and purpose in life, issues of right and wrong and what it means to be human.  They learn to interpret, analyse, evaluate and critically respond to the claims that religious and non-religious worldviews make. Through well sequenced and challenging Religious Education lessons, children are given opportunities to develop as articulate, thoughtful, respectful, well rounded global citizens.

In all areas of our curriculum, we place an emphasis upon developing key vocabulary to help equip the children with the tools they need to immerse themselves in the subject.
