Curriculum Intent
At The Turing School, the Religions, Philosophy & Ethics curriculum plays a crucial role in providing students with cultural capital and developing their understanding of different beliefs and values in a diverse world. Our curriculum not only prepares students to appreciate and appraise varied responses to significant human questions but also encourages them to develop their own responses.
Through systematic enquiry, our curriculum helps students to appreciate the impact of religion and beliefs on individuals, culture, behaviour and national life. As an intellectually challenging and personally enriching subject, RPE prepares students to become successful, confident and respectful young adults who are equipped with the skills and knowledge needed for successful careers in a diverse and globalised world.
