Year 4 RE Curriculum
Children will be taught a religious education, built upon the Devon and Torbay SATRE plans and supported by the British Council Thems for Global Citizenship. This will be taught through substantive knowledge lessons, where children learn about religions. Expanding upon this, children will be encouraged to learn from religion and be encouraged to enquire. Pupils will be encouraged to consider what it means to be a good citizen and use prompting questions and philosophy for children to deepen discussions. They will be taught…
