Welcome to the Hartismere High School Religious Education
Department website. We have a lively department, and this website is
intended to show you what we do, and some of the successful
resources that we have used. |
What is “religious education?”
Basically, Religious Education examines beliefs-both your own beliefs
and the beliefs of others. It also examines how those beliefs have
affected decisions and lifestyles. A “religion” can be described as a
group or set of beliefs that a group of people all hold to. |

So,
what can I learn in my R.E. lessons?
Ideally, R.E. gives you the chance to examine beliefs and ways of
describing beliefs. The intention is to give you an insight into the
affect of belief. This should apply to both personal relationships and
for society.
Also, R.E. should help you to become aware of the important questions in
life that no one has yet found an answer. Why are we here? What is the
point of life? Did “someone” or “something” make us? There are many
opinions already on this issue, and all religions have presented
opinions and further questions on these matters |
What
skills can I develop in my R.E. lesson? R.E. is definitely a
reflective subject-in R.E. lessons, you are required to think about
and reflect on many different ideas and opinions. You will need to
develop skills such as; sensitivity to what is special to others,
willingness to live with uncertainty, a desire to seek truth, and
confidence to express personal ideas. |
