Religious Education

At Petersgate, we believe that it is vital for all our pupils to learn from, and about, religion so that they can understand the world around them.  Our pupils begin to develop their knowledge of the world faiths and their understanding and awareness of the beliefs, values and traditions of other individuals, societies, communities and cultures.

Through the Hampshire Living Difference IV, the children are able to explore three groups of concepts:

• Concepts common to all people
• Concepts shared by many religions
• Concepts distinctive to particular religions

We aspire for children to be able to hold balanced and well-informed conversations about religion and beliefs. We do this by exploring and asking questions in our mutually respectful environment.
