Curriculum overview for RE Intent The Religious Education curriculum at Oakfield equips our pupils with a wide knowledge and deep understanding across a range of religions and beliefs. Pupils find out about the beliefs, values, practices and ways of life in different religions and they are encouraged to ask significant and reflective questions related to the nature, truth and value of religion. Pupils reflect on their own beliefs, values and experiences and develop tolerance and respect for others.
