RE at Holy Souls RC Primary School
At Holy Souls RC Primary School, we are committed to delivering a high-quality Religious Education (RE) that nurtures every child’s learning and personal growth. Our RE curriculum is designed to support the spiritual, moral, social, and cultural development of all children, fostering a deep understanding of the Catholic faith alongside respect and appreciation for all world faiths and beliefs.
Through RE, children gain a rich knowledge of Catholic teachings and practises, grounded in the Gospel values and virtues that shape our school community. We also encourage reflection on personal faith and spirituality, creating meaningful opportunities for children to explore their own beliefs in a supportive environment.
Our programme of study follows the guidance of the Diocese of Salford and the Religious Education Directory. In Early Years and Key Stage 1, we use the 'Lighting the Path' programme. In Key Stage 2, Years 5 and 6 are currently piloting the 'Lighting the Path' curriculum, while Years 3 and 4 continue with 'Come and See' and will begin trialling 'Lighting the Path' in the Summer term of 2026, with full implementation planned for September 2026.
We are dedicated to ensuring that RE is accessible and engaging for every child, using a variety of teaching approaches to meet individual needs and abilities. Assessment is personalised to track each child’s progress and achievement within the subject.
At Holy Souls, all children contribute fully to the Catholic life of the school, regardless of their own faith background. Our RE curriculum also promotes respect, understanding, and positive engagement with the diverse religious and cultural communities within our school and beyond.
