Ashmount is part of a wonderfully diverse community and we take a global view of faith. Our values of community, responsibility and growth are at the heart of how we teach RE.
At Ashmount we help children to develop an understanding of world faiths and belief systems that reflect the diversity within our community. We ensure that children are taught key knowledge to ensure that they are equipped to talk about RE in a sensitive and respectful way. We follow the London Borough of Islington’s agreed syllabus for RE, which covers an array of topics in an age appropriate way. We enrich children’s learning through both workshops and visits to six main places of worship throughout their time at Ashmount.
All parents have the right to withdraw their child from the religious education curriculum but must do so after consultation with the Headteacher.
