How Do We Teach Religious Education at East Coker School?

At East Coker School we follow the Religious Education in English Schools: Non-statutory guidance 2010. To support with delivering the subject knowledge in RE we use the Awareness, Mystery and Value Somerset syllabus and adapt this to meet the needs of our pupils.

Religious Education is led by a teacher or a HLTA with the support of the class teacher.

The school prioritises the following areas:

Christianity

Judaism

Hinduism

Islam

Humanism

There is a clear progression of knowledge and skills and we have a repeated programme of learning to ensure that children's knowledge is constantly built upon and developed. This includes a strong focus on children’s questioning skills and a sound understanding of key vocabulary.
