Religious Education

At Littlegreen Academy we realise that the personal development of pupils, spiritually, morally, socially and culturally, plays a significant part in their ability to learn and achieve.

We aim to provide an education that provides pupils with opportunities to explore and develop their own values, beliefs and spiritual awareness; high standards of personal behaviour; a positive caring attitude towards other people; understanding their social and cultural traditions and an appreciation of the diversity and richness of the culture.

Our RE curriculum is taught through the embedding our whole school values, themed days, assemblies and skills progression outlined in the example below and linked to topic lessons, such as:
