At the heart of Catholic education lies the Christian vision of the human person. This vision is expressed and explored in Religious Education lessons at St Gregory’s. All students will receive an overall education which will enable them, in the light of the faith of the Church, to engage with the deepest questions of life and the reason for the hope which is within them (1 Peter 3:15).
The Curriculum in RE aims to provide our students with the ability to ask big questions relating to humanity’s relationship with God and the implications of belief in this relationship and belief in non-religious world views. It is varied and robust.
Through lived experience of students in the classroom, we intend students develop a strong sense of respect for the values, opinions and beliefs of others. In addition that they recognise the value and importance of human dignity and Catholic Social Teaching.
We intend that students will become religiously literate and are able to express their views and justify their opinions. Skills such as analysing, constructing arguments, making judgements, synthesising, evaluating, recognising diversity and interpreting, are developed in order to meet these aims.
