R.E
Religious Education is a mandatory subject taught.
Parents/Carers do have the right to withdrawn their child from all or part of RE. (Please see files section)
At The Roebuck School, Religious Education currently follows the Lancashire Agreed Syllabus for Religious Education (2021) ‘Searching for Meaning’, which is the legal basis for RE in Lancashire. The syllabus frames RE as pupils’ personal search for meaning and uses the Lancashire Field of Enquiry to specify progressive, clearly sequenced knowledge and skills across EYFS–KS2.
Our curriculum is ambitious for all pupils. In EYFS, learning sits within ‘Understanding the World: People, Culture and Communities’ and builds awareness of similarities and differences in religious and cultural communities. Across KS1 and KS2, pupils study Christianity and Islam in depth, alongside Hinduism, Judaism and Sikh traditions.
