At Lawn Primary and Nursery School we believe that Religious Education contributes dynamically to children and young people’s education in schools by provoking challenging questions about meaning and purpose in life, beliefs about God, ultimate reality, issues of right and wrong and what it means to be human. 

In RE they learn about and from religions and worldviews in local, national and global contexts, to discover, explore and consider different answers to these questions. 

They learn to weigh up the value of wisdom from different sources, to develop and express their insights in response, and to agree or disagree respectfully. 

The RE curriculum includes the study of Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism and Humanism.

At Lawn Primary and Nursery School, RE forges important links within our local community. We value the opportunity of bringing learning to life by visiting local places of worship. For example, Year 3 and 4 have visited Swindon Evangelical Church to learn about how Christians celebrate Christmas and Easter.  

At Lawn Primary and Nursery School, we follow the Swindon Agreed Syllabus for RE which can be found below.
