Religious Education Co-ordinator
The Religious Education Co-Ordinator is a special role and one that I am honored to have, as I understand that having an inspiring start to their religious education can shape the person our children become throughout adulthood.
Jesus is at the heart of everything we do at Holy Cross and learning about his story and teachings is a priority in our curriculum, therefore we ensure that it is allocated 10% of teaching time. We currently follow the ‘Come and See’ syllabus for RE as in all Catholic schools across the Nottingham Diocese. The staff and governors strive to nurture the seeds of faith in our children and their families and to support families, staff and parish in building a community of faith in which the young can grow socially, emotionally, physically, academically and spiritually. The basic question (belief) for each term is explored through three themes:- Domestic Church, Local Church and Universal Church. This ensures a rich mix of learning about Christianity and other World Religions through themes linked to the liturgical year.
If you wish to talk to me about any aspect of Religious Education at Holy Cross, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
