Religious Studies KS3

In Year 7 and 8 the boys are introduced systematically to the six main world religions where they learn about and learn from each religion for a term.

The course enables pupils to appreciate key beliefs and practices of these main religions whilst encouraging the spiritual, moral, social and cultural development of pupils regardless of whether they have any religious beliefs of their own.  The course allows pupils to reflect on their shaping of opinions of right and wrong and question morality.  Culturally students gain a greater understanding and appreciation of the society they live in and the collective and individual religious practices observed, privately and publically.

Members of faith groups are invited in to further illustrate their beliefs and practices.course enables students to appreciate key beliefs and practices
