​At Torre, the deeply Christian foundation for this vision will be seen explicitly in teaching and learning both in RWE and across the curriculum, and also in the authentically Christian worship and ethos of the school. The vision embraces the spiritual, physical, intellectual, emotional, moral and social development of all our children. The Church of England offers a vision of human flourishing for all, one that embraces excellence and academic rigour, but sets them in a wider framework. This is worked out theologically and educationally through four basic elements which permeate the vision for education:

 

• Wisdom

• Hope

• Community

• Dignity

 

Torre’s own vision ‘We live life in all its fullness’ has been created in alignment with the Church of England’s Vision for Education and from our desire for us to enable human flourishing for all. Within the context of the Christian faith, we aspire to nurture the spiritual dimension in our children. We embed Christian values at the heart of school life. This is reflected in the behaviour, attitude and performance of learners and staff alike. Teachers “go the extra mile” on behalf of others.

​

At Torre, Christian Values underpin our ethos and vision for our school. RE is recognised at Torre as Religions and Worldviews Education (RWE). Our RWE curriculum is two thirds Christianity. We use the ‘Understanding Christianity’ materials to support our teaching. The other religions studied are Hinduism, Islam and Judaism. Studying Humanism is also included in the RWE curriculum. As well as learning about different religions and non-religious worldviews, our curriculum allows pupils to examine and explore their own personal perspectives and values. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
