​RE at Baldwins Gate

Picture
Picture
RE is an important part of our curriculum here at Baldwins Gate. We follow the Staffordshire Agreed Syllabus using Understanding Christianity and RE Today resources to support our teaching of Christianity and other world religions.

In each class RE follows a question based approach, allowing pupils to engage deeply, develop their own beliefs and spirituality and grow as individuals with religious literacy and understanding of the diverse world in which we live.

From year one onwards the children have their own personal RE book, as well as a class RE book in which discussions and children's thoughts and reflections are also recorded.



​Our Prayer Corner
Our Prayer Corner is currently focused on our Collective Worship theme of 'Thankfulness'. This area is encouraging children to reflect on what they give thanks for, as well as thinking of others who are not as fortunate as ourselves. For Harvest we are collecting donations for a local charity - The Alice Charity - which supports local families.
