St Werburgh's & St Columba's What you think about RE in our school.
What our school community said.
In October 2024 we asked our school community about what they thought about RE in our school. Thank you to all of those who responded it is very important that we know your views and can take these into account and use your feedback to further strengthen our school's position.
The feedback was overwhelmingly positive. Here are some of the lovely comments.
"My child is a non catholic but has fully embraced learning in RE and Mini Vinnies. I see how the teaching of RE complements other studies, such as handwriting and grammar and influences my child to be a good role model to those around them."
"The school is strengthening my childs moral compass in line with what we teach at home and building a strong foundation for kindess, truth and respect"
"It is clear that Christ is at the centre of everything this school does and the mission statement underpins all decision-making. Catholic Social Teaching is prioritised and children have the opportunity to pray in a variety of ways. "
"My child has chosen to be Baptised (I wanted it to be his choice) on the basis of learning about his catholic faith at school. It is an amazing school and I'm very proud my child has chosen to be baptised shortly. "
"The school teaches my children how to be a good person in all aspects of lessons. Morality and kindness are qualities modelled and emphasised in every lesson and part of school life. The Holy Communion programme is excellent, and provides a wonderful opportunity for parental involvement too. "
"Children live and breathe the motto of the school. The catholic culture is well embedded with how the children talk about school and life."
"I am grateful for the religious education the school provides, the school community lives its mission and ethos."
"Really value the focus on God and helping children to be aware of His love for them. We are not Catholic but appreciate the space given by the school to support parents in raising their children with faith. "
