Religious Studies

Vision

Religious Education at The Marlborough School is designed and structured to allow all students to develop an understanding of religious and moral concepts, as well as to explore and articulate their own ideas and beliefs. Our curriculum is knowledge-rich, ambitious and accessible for all, allowing all students the opportunity to encounter philosophical and religious ideas, exploring in-depth the Christian faith, as well as the other major world religions, as well as the non-religious worldviews of atheism and humanism. 

Religious Education strongly contributes to the Christian ethos and values of our school community, emphasising a respect for all and the development of the whole individual, so that students have an awareness and better understanding of the beliefs in their communities and the wider world, both for their time at The Marlborough, and in their future contexts.
