Religious Education

At Barton, our Religious Education lessons are taught weekly. Within these lessons, world religions such as; Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam and Sikhism are explored.

Not only does learning focus on beliefs and practices but it also includes key elements of personal reflection associated with each faith. Children learn about belief in our community, leaders, rites of passage and about expressions of faith. They make links with their own personal experiences and develop key skills of acceptance and tolerance. 

Our religious education curriculum allows children to become reflective upon beliefs and worship and to develop insight in to diversity across the world. This allows them to develop understanding and insight in to experiences that may differ or be similar to their own
