Intent

At Manor Farm Junior School we believe that Religious Education (RE) plays a crucial role in promoting pupils' spiritual, moral, social, and cultural development. We want all children to show curiosity and ask increasingly challenging questions about religion, belief, values and human life. In order to provide children with the opportunities to explore and extend their knowledge and understanding on Christianity, Islam and Hinduism as well as looking at Humanism and Non-religious world views, we follow the Kapow Primary Scheme for RE which compliments the Bucks Agreed Syllabus.

At Manor Farm Junior School we want children to uphold the integrity of their own beliefs while also being tolerant and showing a mutual understanding of other religions and cultures within the wider community. We aim to distinguish between ideas of right and wrong and value what is good and true. We want children to think differently about the world around them and form their own opinions. We will provide children with the skills needed in order for them to express their own ideas in response to the material they engage with: identifying relevant information, selecting examples and giving reasons to support their ideas and views.
