What is REP?Religion - We will investigate the beliefs and practices the main world religions. In lesson time you will be encouraged to discuss and evaluate the impact that religion can have on individuals and on society.
Ethics - Asking questions such as how do we make difficult moral choices and how do we know what is right and what is wrong? We will discuss and evaluate a variety of ethical issues such as war, the death penalty and genetic engineering. Philosophy - Encouraging you to consider some of the biggest questions humans have ever debated: 'how was the universe formed?' 'Is there any type of higher power?' 'Is my fate and destiny already written?' 'Do humans have a soul that lives on after our physical death?' Most importantly REP challenges you to consider and justify your own opinions and to evaluate the opinions of other people. We want you to think for yourself and engage with the events and people in the community and world around you.
