"Starting the Journey Well"
As a Church of England school in the heart of a diverse community in the east end of London, although we are distinctively Christian, we acknowledge, respect and celebrate the many ways our children, parents, staff and governors approach God. Religious Education at Christ Church is a core subject and has a high profile within our curriculum. This means that we seek to develop children’s skills to know what we can learn about religion and what we can learn from religion. In line with the Church of England’s RE statement of entitlement, Christianity is the majority study within our scheme of work. We explore other world faiths alongside Christianity which celebrate and draw upon our children’s diverse backgrounds. Although we are distinctively a Christian school, we acknowledge and respect people of faith approach God in different ways. As a school, we take pride in providing a learning environment where everyone in our school community feels welcome and where everyone feels happy to share their own beliefs, values and ways of life even if they are a person who does not follow a faith. Our Christian values are at the core of everything we do; we foster spiritual and moral development within a caring multi-faith community. We teach our children to explore, identify and respect similarities and differences. We aim to equip our children with an understanding of what it means to have faith and to develop an opinion on beliefs and values growing in learning and love. We want our children to leave Christ Church being religiously literate; able to find similarities with others and seek together to flourish in faith and wonder and love for one another beliefs. The knowledge and skills they develop, we hope, will remain with them and become lifelong skills they will draw on throughout their lives.
