We follow the Harrow Agreed Syllabus of Religious Education for KS3 and Key Stage 4 students study a Core Philosophy and Ethics curriculum. At KS4 we also provide students the opportunity to study the full course Eduqas GCSE and this has proved to be a popular option. Students are provided with the opportunity to study Eduqas A Level, with Buddhism as the focus for Component 3: Study of a World Religion. With a high profile across the school, the department has consistently demonstrated its ability to engage students through dynamic and thought-provoking lessons that challenge their understanding of religion and world views through the lens of ethical issues. Recent achievements include exam results that exceeded the national average in the summer 2024 examinations. The Philosophy and Ethics Department continues to enrich students' learning experiences through trips that offer real-world insight into different religious practices and beliefs. Through our commitment to both academic rigor and holistic development, the Philosophy and Ethics Department continues to be a cornerstone of the school’s ethos and a driving force in shaping well-rounded, responsible young people.
