Religious Education

At KS4, students follow a course in AQA Religious Studies. Students sit two examinations at the end of Year 11, forming 100% of the course. Our GCSE specification provides a broad understanding of the beliefs and practices of the faiths Christianity and Islam, as well as promoting religious literacy and the contemplation of ultimate questions.  Students are able to reflect on and develop their own values, beliefs and attitudes in light of what they have learnt. There are also a range of relevant and contemporary themes to study that promote awareness of modern-world issues and engagement within the classroom.
