Aims
To have high expectations of what an SEN child can understand or explain during a RE lesson. RE is a chance for them to explain their own thoughts and beliefs which isn’t limited to ability. Individual children’s barriers should be considered for the specific support needed however; linking the concrete with the abstract should allow all children to understand other’s beliefs as well as explaining their own.
