Schools have a share in the responsibility of preparing pupils for life in a rapidly changing world. Opportunities in our classrooms need to be made for pupils to examine the many religious and moral questions that continue to be asked. The Religious Studies Course in College provides opportunities for students to study in some depth some of the issues they may encounter in their own experience and in the classrooms of an increasingly secularized society.
Assessment is by course work and examination.
Third and fourth year students are given opportunities to develop research skills through special assignment and dissertation work. A residential field course which manages to integrate both serious study and social activities is normally undertaken at the beginning of the third year. Secondary students take a subsidiary subject during years 1 and 2.
