Religious Education

R.E. Statement of Intent

The teachers of St. James’ Catholic Primary School say…..


Religious Education is a vital part of our Catholic School and is at the heart of all that we do at St James’.

Our RE Curriculum allows the children to gain knowledge and have a deeper understanding of the values and beliefs taught to us by Jesus. These values and beliefs go hand in hand with our school 7 Golden threads which help us uphold the Catholic Life of our school. We allow our children to self-reflect and be reverent, have the opportunity to make decisions, be curious about what they wonder, communicate with others, be organised and independent and to show resilience.

We are a loving school community that has been brought together through Christ.
