RE is the foundation of the entire education process and permeates all areas of the curriculum and school life. We are a Catholic school and we are committed to the Catholic Faith, recognising and valuing every individual as special and unique and giving everyone the opportunity to ”learn, grow and shine”. With Jesus in our hearts, we encourage love and respect for all. We are nurturing every child through an engaging curriculum that is centred around our Gospel Values.
Religious Education at St. Leonard’s respects and promotes each child’s capacity for wonder, reverence and spirituality. Children are taught about God’s love; they learn about their Christian responsibilities; children are provided with experiences of church, Catholic and Christian traditions, as well as being taught to be respectful and understanding of people and traditions from other faith backgrounds. Through Religious Education our children learn about their unique place within the home, school and parish community.
Our principal aim is that children leave St Leonard’s they will have met the attainment targets in the RE programme of study and are happy and confident in their place in the community and have a clear understanding on their impact in it.
