Religious Education
'Come and See'
We follow the ‘Come and See’ Catholic Primary Religious Education Programme. This is a special programme which allows the children to learn about the Catholic faith and to know Jesus more. Throughout the year, we also explore other faiths.
It is an extensive programme which covers a range of challenging themes from EYFS up to Year 6. Each theme comprises the following sections:
- Explore
- Reveal
- Respond
At the end of each theme, the children reflect on what they have learnt through class liturgies.

'Life to the Full'
Relationship and Health Education (RHE) became statutory for all Primary Schools from September 2020.
The Life to the Full programme is the RHE scheme that we use at St Thomas More and is based on the structure of ‘A Model Catholic RSE Curriculum’ by the Catholic Education Service. This model curriculum was highlighted as a work of good practice by the Department for Education so we are confident that the programme supports the growth and development of your child.
Life to the Full is much more than a series of lessons. It is an entire platform of creative resources that engage, inform and inspire our children and, indeed, you as parents. It includes interactive video content, story-based activities, employing a wide range of teaching tools, original worship music and an accompanying programme of classroom prayers.
Life to the Full offers an Relationships & Sex Education Policy so that you, as parent and carers, can engage with the teaching and deepen the experience for your child:

This Relationships & Sex Education Policy will help to give you an overview of the structure and content of the programme.
Life to the Full is a means to further develop, support and enrich the partnership between home, school and church so that your child is fully supported.
