Religious Education

At St Stephens CP School we are passionate about providing an engaging and creative education which strives for excellence in every child. With our intent at the heart of all teaching and learning, RE plays a significant role in ‘instilling a curiosity’ and supporting our future generations as ‘citizens who have an understanding of the global nature of our world’. Through our RE curriculum, we provide opportunities to develop children’s knowledge and understanding of world religions. Taught within a creative and exciting curriculum, we aim to engage children in shared thinking about significant human questions and faith, through different religions and world views. We support children to develop understanding and skills they need to consider varied responses. We teach them the importance of tolerance and understanding with open-minded attitudes.  In school, we follow the Cornwall Agreed Syllabus 2020, the principle aim being ‘to explore what people believe and what difference this makes to how they live; so pupils can gain the knowledge, understanding and skills needed to handle questions raised by religion and beliefs, reflecting on their own ideas and ways of living’.
