“Let the children come to me and do not stop them, because the Kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”
(Matthew 19:14)
At Sacred Heart, we participate in the Church’s universal educational mission to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
All staff ensure that Religious Education is at the heart of our curriculum and aim to create religiously literate and engaged young people who have the knowledge, understanding, and skills – appropriate to their age and ability – to reflect spiritually, and think ethically and theologically, and who recognise the demands of religious commitment in everyday life (RED 2023).
To fulfil our Religious Education aims and objectives, we currently follow two programmes; both of which are recommended by the Archdiocese of Liverpool.
