At Knowleswood Primary School, our curriculum is designed to inspire, challenge and nurture every child in our care. The National Curriculum gives pupils a strong foundation in the essential knowledge and skills they need to become educated, responsible and confident citizens. Building on this, our teachers create exciting, engaging and meaningful learning experiences that bring learning to life and reflect the values of our school community.

We go beyond the requirements of the National Curriculum, ensuring our curriculum is broad, balanced and ambitious. It not only develops children’s knowledge and skills but also fosters curiosity, creativity and a lifelong love of learning.

Religious Education

At Knowleswood Primary, we are committed to providing a broad and balanced curriculum, which includes Religious Education (RE) as a key component. RE offers pupils the opportunity to explore a range of beliefs, religions, and world views, encouraging respect, understanding, and tolerance for different perspectives. We recognise that parents and carers have the legal right to withdraw their child from all, or part of, Religious Education, in accordance with the Education Act 1996 and the School Standards and Framework Act 1998. This right allows parents to opt out if they feel that the content covered does not align with their personal beliefs or wishes for their child’s education.

If you wish to withdraw your child from all or part of RE, we kindly request that you inform the school in writing. We will then arrange a discussion to understand your concerns and explore potential alternative arrangements for your child during RE lessons. While we respect every family’s beliefs and decisions, we encourage parents and carers to consider the value of RE in promoting inclusivity, tolerance, and cultural awareness. For further information or to discuss the process, please contact the school office.
