Religious Education
Learning through Religious Education at Greenleas
At Greenleas, Religious Education (RE) actively promotes the values of truth, justice, respect for all and care for the environment. RE is taught alongside the National Curriculum and is taught according to the Wirral Agreed Syllabus for Religious Education. Parents and carers have a right to withdraw their child from all or parts of the RE curriculum.
Religious Education at Greenleas places specific emphasis on:
Pupils valuing themselves and others,
The role of family and the community in religious activity and belief,
The celebration of diversity in society through understanding similarities and differences,
The sustainable development of the earth.
On each school day, children also take part in an act of collective worship either in class or as a whole school during assemblies.
