Section 1 - Curriculum Planning
Curriculum Models and exemplars
The following pages contain a number of suggestions and examples to
illustrate how teachers could use the Programmes of Study, as outlined in
the Kent Agreed Syllabus, to develop Schemes of Work for Religious
Education in their own school.
It is not necessary to teach each religion or theme as a separate entity, as
many schools are developing a curriculum that is based on a project or topic
based approach. Care has been taken to ensure that the Programmes of
Study are built around appropriate skills, learning processes and assessment
activities that reflect the learning and developmental needs of children and
young people at different ages and stages of growth. In section 3 of this
‘Non-statutory guidance’, the attainment levels have been rewritten in pupil
friendly language, and linked to appropriate skills. The examples include
suggestions for activities to assess both attainment targets.
Teachers are advised to ensure that the Programmes of Study are covered
across appropriate key stages to ensure that there is progression of
learning, and to avoid undue duplication and repetition. The Programmes of
Study represent the statutory entitlement of all pupils for Religious
Education within each key stage.
Blank planning matrices and grids for teachers to use for developing their
own Schemes of Work and detailed units of study are provided on the
following pages. They are to be adapted for individual use.
