R.E. Curriculum Statement

Our teaching of RE at Longfield ensures that children will acquire knowledge and understanding of diversity by learning about Christianity and other religions represented in their local area and according to the Harrow Syllabus. They develop respect for others through their exploration of a range of beliefs, values, traditions, communities and cultures. This is achieved through enquiry-based learning as well as philosophical questioning that draws on all belief systems. Being part of a multi-cultural society, the children are encouraged to develop positive attitudes of respect towards others who hold views and beliefs different from their own.
