Divinity

Divinity is at the heart of the curriculum at Saint Martin’s. This is because, as a Catholic school, we believe that one of the most important areas of life is to think about the profound questions of life; exploring the meaning and purpose of what it is to be human.

Divinity is a subject at St Martin’s in which students are challenged to think rationally and support opinions with reasons.  Success demands a strong work ethic – this demand is met by most students through their productive behaviour, sensible participation in discussions and prompt completion of homework.  Students can develop a good understanding of Christianity and other world religions via their Divinity lessons.


Divinity encourages students to adopt an enquiring, critical and reflective approach to the study of religion enhance their personal, social and cultural development, their understanding of different cultures locally, nationally and in the wider world, and contribute to social and community cohesion reflect on and develop their own values, opinions and attitudes in light of their learning
