‘ …Catholic education  can be a beacon…’

Religious Education is a core subject at Our Lady of Lourdes School; it is the foundation of our school and central to everything we do. Through our whole school personalised curriculum, we support our children to develop a caring, empathetic attitude as they develop respect for self and others. We support them to understand the importance of being a global citizen and giver of society.

Children are taught Religious Education through the Religious Education Directory ‘To know You more clearly’. Children from Nursery to Year Six are taught through branches of study.
