Religious Instruction has been taught at the Form 1 and Form 2 level for
many years and in the last five years it has been offered at Form 3 and
Form 4 as well. The subject is not examinable, and is taught only twice in
a cycle. It is, however, an important subject which aims to ensure that
all who enroll as students of Watershed College
have a basic understanding
of what Christianity is all about. The teachers are instructed not to
evangelize, but they do teach in such a way that students have a basis on
which to make a choice as to whether they want to be
Christians or not.
The department comprises members of staff who are fulltime teachers in
other departments and who have kindly offered to take one or two Religious
Instruction classes.
