Intent

At Wood Field Primary School, we want our pupils to grow into respectful and all-round individuals, be able to articulate beliefs and have the confidence in expressing their own opinions. This will be achieved by exploring different views, developing understanding with open mindedness, and progressively strengthening their knowledge throughout the years. We celebrate and analyse a range of faiths and beliefs through pour R.E. lessons. This is an opportunity for the children to focus on a different religion where they can develop their understanding and analytical skills using a wide range of appropriate and creative methods, including drama, art, music, movement, competitions and exploring artefacts. The curriculum we use at Wood Field, adopts an enquiry-based approach to teaching and learning. Through the enquiry-based approach, children not only learn knowledge but critically develop an understanding of the world of religion and how beliefs impact on daily lives. To motivate and engage the children, we introduce competitions that will develop their knowledge and faith according to their own beliefs and the beliefs of others.
