Religion and World Views (RW)
As a Church of England school, it is no surprise that we consider the teaching of religious education at Holywell to be a key priority. This is reflected in our most recent SIAMS report which is linked below. As a school with a strong Christian ethos, the teaching of Christianity comprises 50% of RE teaching, with the other 50% comprising units covering a wide variety of major world religions, including Islam, Judaism and Hinduism. To ensure the teaching of RE is comprehensive and rigorous, we use Understanding Christianity and The Emmanuel Project scheme of work as key resources to teach from.
Our long-term plan for RW can be found below.
