Core RS

Core Religious Studies at Hutton

Religious Studies (RS) is an important subject at Hutton Sixth Form. It helps you understand the world around you by exploring different religious and non-religious beliefs. Whether you follow a faith or not, RS encourages you to think about your own values and to respect the beliefs of others.

Our Sixth Form curriculum encourages students to think deeply about ethics and to develop compassion and empathy for others. Many lessons are based around lively debates, where you’ll explore challenging and important topics like euthanasia, atheism, and the role of charity work in society.

By discussing these real-world issues, you’ll learn to see different points of view, understand complex moral questions, and build skills in respectful argument and critical thinking. This approach helps you grow not just academically but also personally, preparing you to be a thoughtful and caring member of your community.

Our goal is to help you become an independent and open-minded thinker. You’ll learn to listen with empathy, speak confidently, and explore different opinions respectfully. RS encourages you to challenge prejudice and understand diverse perspectives, preparing you to make a positive difference in society.

We want you to stay curious, celebrate diversity, and be inspired to contribute to a multicultural world. Alongside academic success, RS supports your personal growth, helping you become not just a great student but a great person.
