"The outstanding effectiveness of classroom religious education has led to excellent religious literacy in pupils from Foundation Stage to the end of Key Stage 1."

Overview of Resource Frameworks
The liturgical life of the Church operates at two levels. Annually, we remember the events of Jesus’ life. We begin our year with Advent, during which we prepare for the coming of God into our world, and then we move through to Lent and Easter and the life of the early Church at Pentecost, with a lot of ‘ordinary time’ in between. In conjunction with our annual cycle a second cycle rotates us through the Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke so that over three years we hear their account of the life of Jesus. Year A is the Year of Matthew; Year B, the Year of Mark; Year C, the Year of Luke. The resources are themed and coded in keeping with the Liturgical life of the Church so that C1 represents the first resources in the Year of Luke, Year C. Note: As Advent does not start until December, resource 6, which falls at the commencement of the academic year, is in fact part of the previous Liturgical Year.
