Religious Education (RE) at Ludlow Primary School

At Ludlow Primary School we follow the Shropshire Agreed Syllabus for teaching Religious Education. We teach the Shropshire Syllabus through the comprehensive RE Curriculum Programme Jigsaw RE.

Respecting worldviews with Jigsaw RE Lessons

Across the school we teach a range of worldviews including Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism along with other faiths. The Jigsaw Programme offers us a comprehensive, carefully thought-through Scheme of Work which brings consistency and progression to our children’s learning. Jigsaw RE encourages young minds to build awareness and understanding of the world around them, different language and communication, and develop their broader personal, social and emotional skills.

The principal aim of Religious Education is to explore the different beliefs people hold and the effect this has on how they live. By doing so, pupils can gain the knowledge, understanding and skills needed to handle questions raised by religion and belief, reflecting on their own ideas and ways of living.

Our school’s Curriculum Drivers are designed to ensure that pupils at Ludlow Primary School have the opportunity to understand and appreciate the world around them. Our RE curriculum, taken from the Shropshire Syllabus, is designed to support these drivers and our school’s core values.
