What is Collective Worship?
By Law, all maintained schools must provide religious education and daily collective worship for all students.
Collective Worship aims to promote spiritual, moral and cultural development. It is compulsory for all schools to perform an act of collective worship daily unless students ask for an exemption. However, it does not have to take place in a school assembly and can be done with smaller groups in individual classes. However, as our school is very diverse and we have so many children from many cultures and have with many different religions, our Collective Worship provides us with an opportunity to come together collectively to discuss, listen, reflect and encourage our children to share and reflect upon their own beliefs while taking part.
