Religious Education

At Bonner Primary School, Religious Education topics are taught in accordance with the Tower Hamlets Agreed Syllabus (2022-2027). This has been developed in consultation with the borough's communities of religion and belief, school staff and RE Today Services. A summary of this syllabus can be found here.

We explicitly teach about four of the six main world faiths (Islam, Christianity, Judaism and Hinduism) as well as discussing other non-religious world views, such as Atheism and Humanism.

Curriculum Vision for RE

RE at Bonner Primary School are lessons that equip children to be confident and respectful global citizens.

Create a longstanding love of learning;
Foster confident, co-operative, independent learners;
Encourage all of our children to embrace diversity and to value one another equally;
Equip all of our children with the necessary skills to take them forward on their educational journey.

We are committed to:

Offering a creative, diverse and innovative curriculum;
Providing an inclusive learning environment, fostering mutual respect, tolerance and teamwork;
Ensuring consistency of approach as one school across two sites;
Being community-focussed, working closely with parents, other schools and local agencies;
Achieving and maintaining the highest standards in all areas of teaching and learning.
