At Wethersfield we follow the Essex Agreed RE syllabus
ExploRE 2015.
" Religion and beliefs inform our values and are reflected in what we say and how we behave. RE is an important subject in itself, developing an individual's knowledge and understanding of the religions and beliefs which form part of contemporary society."
Religious Education in English Schools:2010 (from ExploRE 2015)
In Foundation Stage children learn to respect themselves and others. They are provided with opportunities to start from their own experience of life and religion. Planned and purposeful activities may be indoors or outdoors. Content will be relevant and appropriate to the different levels of children’s needs.
