Religious Studies plays an important role in the life of the School. R.S aims to enable students to develop their knowledge and understanding of the principal faiths in Britain whilst learning about themselves; their views and opinions, attitudes and beliefs. Lessons are designed to cover a range of learning styles which enable students to practise a variety of skills from empathy to evaluation. R.S is an academic subject which also provides opportunities to reflect on the inner, spiritual side of life and can lead to faith development. Most university courses currently have an ethics component and this subject will prepare students for that section of their course. The course fits well with subjects such as English or Psychology and provides a contrast and balance to other sciences and the arts. Students from Trinity have gone on to study the philosophy of religion at university and a range of other courses from psychology, journalism and law.
3 exams are to be taken at the end of the 2-year course. • 1 Philosophy exam = 2 hours • 1 Ethics exam = 2 hours • 1 Christianity exam = 2 hours There is no coursework for this subject – assessment is entirely via examinations.
