Religious Studies at Bridgewater High School is a rigorous academic subject delivered to all students in the school. The department aims to deepen students’ knowledge and understand of religion and world views and to explore challenging questions about the ultimate meaning and purpose of life, beliefs about God, the self and the nature of reality and moral issues. By exploring issues within and across faiths, students learn to understand different religions, beliefs, values and traditions and their influence on individuals, societies, communities and cultures.
At Key Stage 3 there is a detailed programme of study designed to prepare students for the topics and skills required in Key Stage 4. At Bridgewater High School, students follow the Lancashire Agreed syllabus for religious education. The aim of this syllabus at Key Stage 3 is “to support students’ personal search for meaning by engaging enquiry into the question ‘What does it mean to be human?’”. Each unit across Key Stage 3 has a key enquiry question to inform knowledge and lesson sequencing. To design out barriers to success at Key Stage 4, some subjects will be embedded within Key Stage 3 to ensure there is contextual understanding and familiarity. Our Key Stage 3 curriculum currently covers:
| Year 7 – Where do we belong? | Year 8 – Where can we find guidance? | Year 9 – What really matters? |
| What is religion and worldviews? | Where do Muslims find guidance? | Are science and religion compatible? |
| What does it mean to be the ‘Chosen people’? | Jesus – rebel or role model? | Is it fair? |
| Can one religion contain different worldviews? | Do we need God for guidance? | Why do people suffer? |
| What does it mean to be Hindu? | Who are our role models? | What does it mean to be human? |
At Key Stage 4 Religious Studies is a compulsory subject and is currently split into Option Religious Studies and Core Religious Education. Those following the Core allocation continue in their study of religious beliefs and values relating to religion, philosophy and ethics and the world around them. Students who opt for GCSE Religious Studies follow AQA Specification A with specific study of the religions of Christianity and Islam. The department has a long history of strong GCSE outcomes.
