Horwich Parish CE Primary SchoolReligious Education
At Horwich Parish we believe that religious education is fully entwined throughout the heart of our school curriculum. We feel that all of our pupils should leave our school with all the skills that they will need to prepare them in the next steps throughout the journey of their life. Our school values of love, respect and forgiveness are embedded in teaching and learning to help them flourish enabling them to grow both individually and collectively as part of our school family.
We teach the Manchester R.E. Diocese scheme of work.
Fifty percent of this scheme of work focuses on Christianity. We use the understanding Christianity big freeze to pose thought provoking questions that encourage our pupils to engage in discussions that might challenge their own thinking.
Our pupils also learn about Judaism, Islam and Hinduism. We celebrate these faiths throughout their primary school journey.
In our culturally diverse school our R.E. curriculum promotes respect, tolerance and an understanding of other faiths and beliefs.
Our vision is to give everyone in our school community opportunities to flourish and let their light shine.
