With specific regards to R&W, the United Learning curriculum provides all children, with coherent and sequenced substantive knowledge (what they should know), opportunities for all pupils to see themselves reflected in the curriculum, but also to be taken beyond their own experiences with opportunities for children to become religiously literate. The curriculum adopts a scholarly approach to core disciplinary knowledge (how pupils think/ways of knowing) of theology, philosophy and social sciences, developing pupils' ability to hold different types of conversation. The curriculum encourages a curiosity and openminded approach to the worldviews of others and a reflective consciousness of their own worldview.
