R.E.
At Christ the King Catholic and CofE Primary School, our Christian faith underpins every aspect of the curriculum and is at the centre of our learning. Children are actively encouraged to ‘Build God’s Kingdom’.
RE Curriculum Intent
In the life of faith of our Christian School, Religious Education plays a central and vital part. We are committed to Catholic RE because all pupils have the right to receive an overall religious education. RE is for all and is a collaborative activity, which respects and promotes the child’s innate capacity for wonder, awe, inquisitiveness and questioning.
At Christ the King, we aim to educate the whole person. At the heart of the school is a sense of purpose, which is to create a community that shares the values of wisdom, respect, forgiveness, creativity, wisdom and perseverance as shown through the example of Christ.
From September 2024 our Reception class will follow the the new RED curriculum from 'Kip and Friends' designed by Margeret Carswell. This includes content mandated for teaching at EYFS. It structures around the 6 branches of the curriculum design - 5 of which follow the Liturgical year. It covers the EYFS goals, nominated under each EYFS area summarise what pupils should be able to do by the end of EYFS.
