Request for Student Withdrawal from Religious Education

Parents and carers have the right to withdraw their child from all or part of the R.E. curriculum. As a school we feel that academic and ambitious Religious Education is important for the development of all students as active and knowledgeable members of a multi-cultural, multi-faith British and global society.  The R.E. Department have strived to create a curriculum that equips students with not only knowledge but interdisciplinary skills which are beneficial in a range of subjects e.g. English, Geography and History.  Please note that students withdrawn from R.E. do not use this time to enhance their learning of other areas of the curriculum e.g. extra mathematics.  If you wish to withdraw your child, please contact the Head Teacher to arrange a discussion.
