All pupils undertake a GCSE - either full or short course. Pupils are assisted in their search for meaning and purpose in life by providing them with opportunities to explore and reflect upon their own experience of life, religious beliefs and practice. They are helped to understand and appreciate the religious beliefs, practices and behaviour of others and encouraged to show respect, sensitivity and empathy towards them.
