Intent
At school, we are following the new RED RE curriculum – ‘To Know You More Clearly’. Within the new curriculum, there are six ‘branches’ which are follow yearly. The learning in each branch progresses through the years, with the previous year’s learning being built upon.
The school works closely with the Diocese of Nottingham to ensure our children receive an RE education which enables them to be prepared for life in modern Britain.
It follows on from successful trialling in schools in England and Wales and is based on the theological foundations of the Second Vatican Council, the Catholic Catechism and the revised RE Curriculum Directory and includes the Catholic attainment levels.
The Catechism of the Catholic Church addresses the search for meaning in life. God’s initiative in Revelation who comes to meet us and our response of faith. (cf. CCC26) This pattern guides the structure of the programme and informs the process of each topic, opened up through; Explore, Reveal and Respond.
