Religious Education

We use The Way, the Truth and The Life for our RE teaching. It begins in Reception and goes through to Year 6. It is broken into 6 topics across the year. We also teach other major faiths across the school in Multi-Faith weeks that reflect the diverse world in which the children live.

Teaching of Other Faiths

At St Joseph's, teaching about other faiths is essential to fostering a spirit of respect, understanding, and unity among children and adults. By learning about different religions, pupils develop a broader worldview, recognising the shared values of compassion, peace, and justice that underpin many faith traditions. This education encourages empathy and tolerance, helping to combat prejudice and promote harmony in our diverse society. Rooted in the Catholic ethos of love for all, exploring other faiths allows students to live out the Gospel message of kindness and respect for others, nurturing them to become thoughtful and inclusive members of the global community.
