Religious Education
Three Distinct Lenses
At RPS we follow the Saffron Academy Trust (SAT) RE Scheme. In line with and recommended by the Essex SACRE 2022 Syllabus, the SAT RE Scheme explores Religious Education through three distinct lenses.
At RPS we want our children to grow up to be interested, kind, empathetic and tolerant members of society. The principle aim of RE teaching in school is to engage pupils in an enquiry approach where they can develop an understanding and appreciation for the expression of beliefs, cultural practices and influence of principle religions and worldviews in the local, national and wider global community. RE lessons allow time for the children to think about bigger questions, share experiences, make comparisons, be creative and debate ideas whilst learning about the major world religions in a sensitive and supportive environment.
