Religious Education

R.E. at HCFS

 At Hatfield Community Free School, the RE curriculum is broad, rich and inclusive, giving children meaningful opportunities to learn about a wide range of religions, worldviews and themes linked to personal development and wellbeing. It is coherent and progressive, with strong connections to SMSC development, community cohesion and cross‑curricular learning.

The aims of RE in our school are to:

  • develop pupils’ knowledge and understanding of Christianity and other principal religions and worldviews.
  • encourage pupils to explore questions of meaning, purpose, and value.
  • foster an appreciation of how religious beliefs shape life and behaviour.
  • support pupils in developing their own ideas, values, and identities.
  • promote respect for different cultures and beliefs, preparing children for life modern Britain and guided by British values.
