The RE curriculum (Agreed Syllabus) includes pupil entitlement to the following ‘experiences and opportunities’:

At KS1 to:

  • visit places of worship and focus on symbols and feelings
  • listen and respond to visitors from local faith communities

At KS2 to:

  • encounter religion through visitors and visits to places of worship, and focus on the impact and reality of religion on the local and global community
  • discuss religious and philosophical questions, giving reasons for their own beliefs and those of others

At KS3 to:

  • encounter people from different religious, cultural and philosophical groups, who can express a range of convictions on religious and ethical issues
  • visit, where possible, places of major religious significance to enhance pupils’ understanding of religion
