Religious Education
At Mark Cross CE Primary School, we aim to prepare our learners for their future by giving them the opportunities to gain knowledge and develop skills that will equip them for an ever-changing world. We are a church aided school and our Christian values are at the forefront of everything we do, encapsulated in our intent to encourage and enable everyone in our school to ‘Let Your Light Shine’ (Matthew 5:16). Religious Education has a significant role for the development of pupils’ spiritual, moral, social and cultural development. It promotes respect and open-mindedness towards others with different faiths and beliefs and encourages pupils to develop their sense of identity and belonging through self-awareness and reflection. Through quality first teaching, exposure to religious concepts and beliefs and by encouraging our pupils to think deeply and compassionately, we will provide our children with the skills, knowledge and empathy they need to become successful, creative and curious learners.
