Religious Education
At Leigham Primary School, Religious Education reflects our ethos and aims, making a substantial and distinctive contribution to pupils’ spiritual, moral, social and cultural development. The teaching of RE aims to contribute to the development of pupils' own beliefs and values and to develop their knowledge and understanding of key world religions.
Our key aims are:
1. To give an understanding of the religious, spiritual and moral values of others and for each child to consider thoughtfully their own attitudes, values and beliefs.
2. To develop lively and enquiring minds with a positive wish to learn.
3. To provide a basis for the information of our children's values, attitudes and beliefs.
4. To encourage each child to gain self-understanding, explore their relationships with others and to consider their own place within the local community and wider world.
We actively encourage people to visit us at school to share their beliefs and world views through assemblies, presentations, discussions and workshops.
We enjoy learning about the Christian faith, and sharing in Christian festivals such as Christmas, Easter and Harvest with our friends at Christ Church in Estover.
