Weyford Nursery and Primary Academy is proud to have a wide range of cultures and beliefs within our community. We offer an approach to religious education that uses a process of enquiry into concepts. Children have the opportunity to respond from their own experience before being introduced to the way others appreciate things, giving children the ability to see how we may all be the same and then how people view the world differently. This approach gives children the opportunity to evaluate; that is to make a judgement about why something is important for someone else as well as to understand what may be important for themselves.  

RE teaching identifies three groups of concepts:   

• concepts common to all people  

• concepts shared by many religions  

• concepts distinctive to particular religions.  

Christianity is represented in every key stage and Judaism, Hinduism, Islam and other world religions are all studied throughout the school.
