Right of Withdrawal from Religious Education

Right to Withdraw

St Gerard's Catholic Primary and Nursery School is a Catholic school in which Religious Education is at the heart of our curriculum and reflects our mission, “Guided by God, we learn to love, hope, dream and achieve.”

Parents and carers have the right to withdraw their child from all or part of Religious Education. If a parent or carer wishes to consider withdrawing their child, they are encouraged to contact the Headteacher in the first instance so that the school can discuss the nature and purpose of Religious Education and the arrangements that can be made.

Any request to withdraw a child from Religious Education should be made in writing to the Headteacher.
