Beliefs, Ethics and Philosophy

Why study this subject?

At Seahaven Academy the RS Department is committed to providing a curriculum that prepares students for life in a culturally diverse modern world. The department aims to promote an awareness of the usefulness of Religious Education to everyday living, to encourage enthusiasm for interest in the study of other people’s beliefs and to promote mutual respect, tolerance and understanding across different cultures and communities - those with and without a religious faith.

As both citizens and employees this course equips students with an important understanding of the beliefs of others, whilst exploring, developing and confirming their own beliefs and values.

BEP will teach you the life skills of analysis, open-mindedness, critical thinking, evaluation, cultural understanding and empathy. If you intend to work with or manage people in the future these dispositions and skills are required.
