Religious Education
The Religious Studies Department at Aldersley helps students understand world faiths and develop respect, empathy, and critical thinking.
The R.E Curriculum at AHS:
Our aim is to support pupils in becoming informed, reflective and articulate about the beliefs and values of different religions. By fostering empathy and awareness, we help students grow into well-rounded individuals free from ignorance, fear, prejudice, and discrimination, equipped to thrive in today’s multi-faith society.
Religious Education teaches skills for personal reflection, identity formation, and respectful interaction in a diverse community. Students concentrate on two learning objectives – ‘learning about’ and ‘learning from’ each particular religion.
In years 7 and 8, pupils explore the six major world religions and humanism/atheism, while years 9–11 follow a bespoke RE and Social Studies curriculum, with some choosing the AQA Full Course GCSE.
“By the study of different religions we find that in essence they are one.”
