Religious Education

"In the Light of Jesus, we learn to shine."

At St Mary and St John Catholic Primary School, our Mission Statement permeates through everything that we do and we see this as our everyday curriculum.

We deliver the ‘To Know You More Clearly’ programme from the new Religious Education Directory in  Reception, year 1, year 2 and year 3 and the Come and See programme in year 4, year 5 and year 6, as recommended by the Archdiocese of Liverpool.


Further information can be found in the Religious Education Handbook and by accessing our 'Catholic Life and RE' Tab on the top bar, or by clicking the below buttons:

Our Relationships and Sex Education Curriculum is directed by the Diocese and follows guidance from the Conference of Bishops and the DFE. We use the 'Journey in Love' programme which is taught as a whole school programme and supports development of the child from Reception to Year 6 through the areas of spiritual, intellectual, emotional, social and physical development. Our annual 'Class Welcome meetings' are used to inform parents that year group content and details about each year groups 'Journey in Love' focus will be provided prior to delivery. Please access the RSHE Policy(above) or speak to your child's class teacher for further information relevant to your child. Our schools approach to the curriculum reflects the Equality Act 2010 and the Special Educational Needs and Disability Regulations 2014. Please refer to the Equality Scheme and the Accessibility Plan which can be found on the Policies page.
