Year 9 Religious Education

9REL
Subject Description

Teacher in Charge: M. Ward.

The theme of this year is beginnings. As students learn within topic areas they will draw upon religious language, symbols and texts that are at the heart of our Christian faith. They will study the life and background of Jesus Christ and how the early Christians took the message of Jesus to the world. They will use creative and critical thinking in order to advance their learning. Students will also give witness to Christian values and Social Justice principles. This will take place within the classroom and through the Journey Programme.

For 2026 Course Selection there will be some controls on subject sizes. These numbers will reviewed regularly as Course Selection proceeds and applications to 'full' courses will be reviewed at least weekly. Some courses have firm limitations due to resource constraints and these will be communicated on course pages, by teachers and Heads of Faculty.

All approvals for courses through this system are subject to satisfactory achievement in remaining internal standards and external examinations. Course Confirmation Day will run at the start of next year, where final approval for each course will be confirmed.
