The Barnet Syllabus for Religious Education (November 2018) is the basis for our curriculum. Plans show key questions for teachers to use as discussion points and the children visit local places of worship (e.g., St Andrew’s Parish Church, Woodside Park Synagogue, North Finchley Mosque, Hare Krishna Temple in Neasden, Nanak Darbar Sikh Temple in Arnos Grove). Visitors and assemblies celebrate key festivals; biennially infants take part in KS1 religious Christmas production.
