Subject overview

The principal aim of religious education is to explore what people believe and what difference this makes to how they live, so that pupils can gain the knowledge, understanding and skills needed to handle questions raised by religion and belief, reflecting on their own ideas and ways of living.

All of our young people will participate in religious education for the duration of their time at Harper Green School. 

We advocate that it is imperative for our students to become tolerant and well-informed global citizens, and a good religious education is vital in developing the consideration and compassion that we expect from our young people.   

We work with the 2020 Bolton Agreed Syllabus, which can be accessed here.
