How can we serve your school?
We provide Stockport primary and secondary schools with relevant and engaging Christian RE lessons, workshops, collective worship assemblies, lunch/after-school clubs and 'spaces' that support each school's RE Syllabus and also the social, spiritual and moral life of students.
All of our sessions are free of charge and we use a range of exciting resources to appeal to lots of different learning styles. Here's how we can support your primary and secondary school in the 2024-2025 academic year.
EYFS/KS1 RE LESSONS
We provide EYFS/KS1 pupils with relevant, inclusive and engaging lessons that support your school's RE Syllabus. For each syllabus unit, we provide one lesson giving pupils an introduction to the Christian faith by building on pupils’ own experiences and knowledge of the world and helping them develop positive and respectful relationships.
COLLECTIVE WORSHIP ASSEMBLIES
CIST assemblies are based on both the Christian calendar and ‘world focus days’ that are an important part of any school calendar. There’s always a lot to get involved with, look at and think about in our assemblies as pupils connect with the world around them and explore the core Christian values of love, peace and kindness. In a faith-sensitive way, pupils have the chance to reflect on how the assembly theme relates to them and how they can build respectful relationships with each other.
KS2 RE LESSONS
For each KS2 RE unit, we provide lessons allowing pupils time to explore the big questions about life, to find out what Christian people believe and what difference this makes to how they live. We aim to help pupils to make sense of the Christian religion and worldviews and reflect on their own ideas and ways of living.
KS 3 & 4
Our secondary schools work is tailored to the needs of each individual school.
We currently run lunch and after school clubs, provide RE lessons, class devotions and ‘spaces’.
If you have an idea of how we can support your school, please get in touch and we can explore what CIST work in your school might look like.
SPACES
A great way to enhance your PSHCE education, CiST ‘SPACES’ are exactly that– a space for pupils to develop skills of personal reflection and to explore their feelings about themselves and the world around them in an open, inclusive and safe environment. They offer pupils of all faiths and none time to explore life’s questions, spirituality and faith in creative and interactive ways.
Our ‘SPACES’ require a room that the activity stations can be set up in beforehand (set up takes about an hour) and left throughout the day before being packed down again. This could be a room in school or even in your local church if you have one within walking distance. Pupils can visit the ‘SPACES’ in small groups or as a class.
