Religious Education
The teaching of Religious Education is a statutory requirement in all schools. In Religious Education we teach in accordance with the Hertfordshire Agreed Syllabus for RE. We aim to foster in children an awareness of spirituality and promote self-respect and sensitivity toward those with different beliefs from our own. We regularly invite speakers from the community, and various charities and faith groups to share in our assemblies. Parents do have the right to withdraw their children from Collective Worship and Religious Education. If you wish to exercise this right please see the Headteacher to discuss the matter further.
