Statement of Intent RE
At Christ the King Roman Catholic Primary School, our Catholic faith and values define all that we do; they are in the ‘HEART’ of our school. It is our intent for Religious Education to engage, inspire, challenge and encourage pupils. This will equip them with the knowledge and understanding to deepen their own Catholic faith, and their religious, theological, moral and social understanding. Through other subjects in the curriculum, the pupils will relate their beliefs and knowledge to daily life. We will also raise awareness of the faith, beliefs, traditions and values of other religious communities, in order to promote respect and understanding, and to prepare the pupils for adult life in our multi-cultural society.

Implementation
At Christ the King we provide a curriculum and syllabus for religious education, which fulfils Diocesan recommendations and corresponds to the Curriculum Director for Catholic Schools. As part of the Salford Diocese, Christ the King follows the teaching of RE using the syllabus ‘Come and See’ and assessment is carried out following guidelines from the diocese. The RE curriculum is also supported by the scheme ‘Caritas in Action’.

Summer One - Year Two
This half term, we learned all about the gift of the Holy Spirirt, which is celebrated at Pentecost. Some of our Key questions were:
What responsibilities are involed in passing on messages?
Which is the best way to pass on messages?
Year 4 RE Summer 1
This half-term, we learned about Pentecost and the impact it had on the Apostles. We also did a child-led worship to celebrate our work.
This half term, we have explored the belief that the spirit of God is active in each person and in a special way in the community of believers that is the Church. The Feast of Pentecost is the celebration both of the gift of God's Holy Spirit and the trust God places in people to be witnesses in the world.
