As a core subject, all students are taught RE throughout the school with all students sitting GCSE in Year 11. Pupils at Key Stage 3 study Christianity as well as aspects of other major world faiths. In addition to core R.E, students are taught in their Denominational groups where they explore their beliefs, traditions and experiences, which contribute to a Christian view of the world. Teachers inspire all students to achieve their full potential and place great emphasis on securing students' success at GCSE.
Many students choose to go on and study Religious Studies, Philosophy and Ethics at A Level and continue with this subject at further education or serve in Christian community projects in a gap year project. The RE team are a strong and collaborative unit comprised of 5 full-time subject specialist teachers.

Applications are welcome from motivated, enthusiastic teachers, passionate about Religious Education and dedicated to raising standards of students' learning.
