Our Policy
Religious Studies at Port Regis provides a balanced approach to all religions and beliefs. The students approach work academically and are encouraged give careful consideration to their opinions. Therefore, all pupils will be given the opportunity to formulate their own views and will be able to validate their opinions with a balanced argument.
The department provides a stimulating learning environment through dedicated teaching, display, artefacts, DVDs and powerpoint presentations. Junior school pupils are taught in a manner that complements the Common Entrance Syllabus which they start in Year 6 (C Form).
The term ‘Religious Studies’ encompasses a wide variety of topics; World Religions, Scripture, Contemporary Issues, Significant People, Current Affairs and Moral Dilemmas to name but a few. At Port Regis the students are able to approach all topics in a studious and investigative manner. They will understand the importance of accepting others views and develop their ability to look at religions, texts or issues historically, sociologically, analytically and ethically.
Port Regis is a Christian-based school with regular attendance at Motcombe Church and evening prayers for the boarding pupils. There is Catholic Mass available every Sunday. Pupils of all faiths are welcome at Port Regis.
