Cliffedale Subject Learning Journeys
Enriching our Curriculum
We have planned in exciting visits for our children to experience over the course of the year, enriching the learning that is taking place in our classrooms. In addition, we have planned in lots of opportunities for parents to come into school to share and celebrate in their child's learning, whilst also mapping out competitive sports and non-sports events and activities to allow the children to win more skills tokens and help their houses in our house points system!

Relationship and Sex Education (RSE)
At our school, Religious Education (RE) plays an important role in helping children develop respect, understanding and curiosity about different faiths, beliefs and worldviews. Through RE, pupils learn about Christianity and a range of other religions and non-religious perspectives, encouraging them to reflect on their own ideas and values while developing tolerance and respect for others.
We follow the Lincolnshire Agreed Syllabus for Religious Education, which provides a broad, balanced and inclusive curriculum for all pupils. Learning is delivered in an objective and educational way, promoting understanding rather than encouraging any particular belief. [commonslib...liament.uk], [dundryprimary.co.uk]
Under the School Standards and Framework Act 1998, parents have the legal right to withdraw their child wholly or partly from Religious Education. Parents do not have to give a reason for requesting withdrawal. We encourage any parent considering this option to speak with the Headteacher so that we can explain the RE curriculum and discuss any questions or concerns. [planitteachers.ai], [dundryprimary.co.uk]
If a child is withdrawn from RE, the school will make appropriate supervision arrangements in line with Department for Education guidance and legal requirements. [dundryprimary.co.uk], [portsmouth...ese.org.uk]
For further information about our RE curriculum or the right to withdraw, please contact the school office.
