Religion is an important aspect of the human experience. In RME, students are encouraged to explore and develop their knowledge and understanding of religious beliefs, values, practices and traditions. They learn from and about a range of religious and non-religious traditions and viewpoints, and develop their own beliefs, attitudes, values and practices through reflection, discovery and critical evaluation. This enables them to make a positive difference to the world by putting their beliefs and values into action.

 

The course covers a range of Experiences and Outcomes at Level 3 and 4.
