Years 10 & 11 |
We are developing a scheme of work from the Suffolk Agreed Syllabus. RE
is taught as part of a "carousel" in years 10 and 11, along with courses in
I.T., Study Skills, Health and Social Care. The R.E. course lasts for 6/7
weeks, and covers issues of Belief, Faith, Truth, Miracles, Revelation, and
Contemporary Issues. This is a popular course, and gives pupils the
opportunity to consider their own developing beliefs within a structured
framework.
