Religious education (RE)

The aim of Religious Education is “to enable pupils to hold balanced and informed conversations about religion and belief”.

At Monksmoor Park CE Primary School, we endeavour to provide a rich and engaging RE curriculum that provides our pupils with a secure knowledge and understanding of different faiths.

As we are a church school, the teaching of Christianity is at the heart of our RE curriculum but we also learn about a variety of other faiths. We have close links with the Holy Cross church in Daventry and are supported by Reverend Dawn.

Our teaching of RE links with our Christian values and ethos. Our vision of ‘Nurturing all to flourish and aspire’ is supported by RE in providing a caring environment where children feel secure and able to express their own views and beliefs. Children are encouraged to value their own opinions and beliefs, whilst developing respect and sensitivity for the views of others.

RE makes an important contribution to the teaching of our Christian values, as pupils are encouraged to understand the importance of the role that each individual has to play in the life of the school and of the wider community.

Through the teaching of RE, our children will gain the tools they need to grow up to be responsible citizens of the world.
