2. Aim
To develop a clear understanding of effective planning in RERC at: - Whole school level - Class Level (Year) - Class level (Thematic)

3. Having faith in the curriculum
Bridge between ‘This is our faith’ and Cfe
Based on values and vision for Catholic Education
Three tier planning – One way of organising curriculum
Core learning is key
Assessment focused on overall outcome: Key core learning

4. What now? Look at whole year planner – not all class based
Think of class / home / school / Parish
Fill in liturgical year
Think of main themes of year – based on existing knowledge
Plan for each term / month?
Add in experiences and outcomes and core learning?
Try and ensure coverage

5. In school? Think about adding activities / resources
Start to plan for each theme using thematic planners
Share idea with colleagues
Ensure planner for each stage
Might want to think of how RERC can be used as a context for other learning.
Share across the schools
