The RE Curriculum at Nettleworth Infant and Nursery School

At Nettleworth Infant and Nursery School, our aim is for our children to be thoughtful and inquisitive learners, who delve into the world of religion and belief with an open and respectful mind. They will gain an understanding of various religious practices and the significance of faith in people’s lives. This exploration inspires questions and provides insights into the diverse spiritual aspects of the world. We develop cultural capital by fostering meaningful interactions with an overarching aim to nurture, flourish, and achieve!

Nettleworth Infant and Nursery school is a unique and wonderful school, we have identified the need to shape and drive the curriculum based on our school vision and ethos. We have developed 6 key curriculum drivers which underpin the learning and experiences we undertake in all areas of school life. These run as a thread throughout each curriculum subject to ensure our curriculum is enriched and implemented to provide appropriate and ambitious curriculum opportunities for our children to SHINE. 

Our RE curriculum is well sequenced and progressive throughout the school, covering key themes such as celebrations, stories, symbols, and special places from different religions. In order to support our children in their ability to know more and remember more, there are opportunities to review previous learning so that we thrive.

A learner leaving Nettleworth Infant and Nursery School will have an enquiring mind and a strong understanding of the diverse world around them. They will have acquired the specific skills and knowledge to help them think critically about religious and spiritual matters and the confidence to explore and reflect for themselves. We believe that the impact of our coherent RE curriculum is that children develop a lifelong respect for diversity, teachers have high expectations, and quality evidence is presented through floor books and pupil voice.
