This area within Learning for Life enables children to recognise religion as an important expression of human experience. The world religion selected for focused study in Primary 1 is Christianity with the addition of Humanism for a non-religious viewpoint.
The children will also be introduced to a variety of religious festivals and information in assemblies. Some examples of areas of study include: Diwali, St Andrew's Day, Advent, Holi and Bible Stories.
In Religious and Moral Education we aim to foster respect and understanding of religious diversity and investigate religious and non-religious viewpoints. The children’s knowledge will be developed based on the real world and the experiences of their peers.
