Religious Education is about asking the big, awkward, often unanswerable questions. From the
very start of their time with us, students are taught the skills they need to grapple with some of life’s biggest philosophical, religious and ethical problems, as well as an important grounding in the tenants of different faiths.
As a Christian school, our predominant focus is on developing an understanding of our Christian faith and traditions. Each year students also examine other faiths so as to broaden their understanding of world religions. Students are taught how to construct persuasive arguments and thoughtful analysis across a variety of topics. This may take the form of debate and discussion, written work, presentations or artistic activities. No two lessons are the same. We strive for excellence in all that we do, in line with our Vision.
RE at Christ Church is challenging, rigorous, unapologetically questioning, creative and great fun!
