PRE

The PRE Curriculum covers various modules and topics across different stages, focusing on themes such as religious understanding, personal relationships, emotional well-being, and living in the wider community. This curriculum can be linked to the five fundamental British values: democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty, mutual respect, and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs. Here's how some of the curriculum content aligns with these values:
