Alongside developing religious knowledge, pupils develop three interconnected ways of knowing:

Understand

Pupils develop knowledge and understanding of Scripture, Catholic belief, worship, tradition and religious life.

Discern

Pupils learn to think deeply about what they have encountered, make connections, consider different perspectives and explore questions of meaning and faith.

Respond

Pupils reflect personally on their learning and consider how what they have encountered might influence their own lives and actions.

Together, Understand, Discern and Respond enable our children to become thoughtful, reflective and religiously literate learners.
