HIGH PERFORMING SCHOOL Curzon School, Penn Street, was assessed by an RE Quality Mark Inspector in early summer, and the schools regular RE lessons gained high praise as did the Christian distinctiveness on the institution. Pupils demonstrated knowledge of a wide range of religions and through the Standing Advisory Council on Religious Education (SACRE) enjoyed visits to a Mandhir, a Sikh Temple and a Jamia Masjid Mosque in Slough. This enabled strong links to be forged for the school. The school also credits recent improvements to courses attended by staff, led by schools advisers from the Diocese of Oxford and the Local Authority. From 'The Door' Also see:- And here |
