Understanding Religion at Hambleton Primary Academy

At Hambleton Primary Academy we work together to ensure all our children achieve academic success whilst remaining healthy, happy and emotionally aware young people ready to move to the next stage of their education.

Subject Intent

At Hambleton Primary Academy, our intent is that the teaching of RE provides opportunities to develop children’s knowledge not only of Christianity but also of other world religions and we reflect on the challenging questions that it provokes. We aim to help the children learn from religions as well as about religions.

Subject Specific Aims

RE at Hambleton Primary Academy aims to ensure that all children;

  1. Engagement: Reflect on their own experiences, whether that includes religion or not 

  2. Investigation: Children to gain knowledge and factual information of the 6 religions 

  3. Evaluation: Children to evaluate what they have learnt 

  4. Expression: To express their own beliefs and feelings towards the religion
