R.E at Roe Valley
Central to the teaching of R.E. in any primary school in Northern Ireland is the Core syllabus as agreed by the four main Christian Churches in Northern Ireland. At Key Stages 1 & 2, the syllabus has 3 areas:
- The Revelation of God
- The Christain Church
- Morality
The Core Syllabus is treated as 'the main part', however, it is important in a integrated school to study other religions. Aside from various Christian denominations, a variety of other religions, faiths and none. are respresented in the school.

Approaches to RE in Roe Valley Integrated Primary School
Teachers try to make R.E. Relevant, Integrated and Inclusive.
Our children are supported in these areas as well as children of Roman Catholic faith being prepared for Children's Masses, the Sacraments of Reconciliation, First Holy Communion and Confirmation. It is our aim to support children to grow in their own faith and to learn about the faith of others.
We are supported by all the local churches, receive visits from local clergy and visit the local churches for services, including Harvest and Christmas Carol Service.
We appreciate the support of our local community:
