At Beckfoot Heaton Primary School we believe that teaching religious education helps our pupils to respect others and gain a broader understanding of views and beliefs, improve their knowledge of global affairs, develop a stronger sense of wellbeing, ethical standards and personal happiness and helps society to avoid extremism and religious discrimination. Our RE helps to develop spiritual understanding and gives students valuable insights into the diverse beliefs and opinions held by people today. We follow the Bradford approved scheme Believing and Belonging; and we have mapped out visits to places of worship across school. During our collective worship assemblies we recognise festivals across faiths.  RE Progression Overview
