Statement of Intent | Religious Education (RE) at Oakwood aims to inspire, challenge and encourage pupils to consider some of life’s most challenging questions. Positioned within the Beliefs and Values faculty, Religious Education provides pupils with the knowledge and skills to ask deep and often searching questions about their own beliefs and values, religious or otherwise, as well as the beliefs and values of others. The teaching of RE involves studying a range of faiths as well as non-religious world-views and develops the critical thinking and reasoning skills needed to engage with complex moral and philosophical issues. The RE curriculum will help to develop responsibility and respect for all aspects of diversity, whether it be social, cultural or religious, and prepare pupils well for life in modern Britain. |

|
Content covered
| Students begin by learning what the 6 major world religions are. We then follow on to students leaning about Ninian Smarts’ 7 Dimensions of religion upon which this unit of study is based on. Students follow a lesson-by-lesson story whereby the class is on a cruise ship which crashes onto an unidentified Island. The story continues lesson-by-lesson to cover each of the 7 dimensions: · Rules · Rituals · Stories · Belief · Community · Artefacts · Emotions Students explore these themes through looking at different aspects of the major world religions and then applying them to the community we have created on the Island. | Students begin by learning about what the Abrahamic religions are and why they are called “Abrahamic Religions” This is followed by looking at key stories from the Torah/Old Testament starting with the creation story. Key Stories studied are · The Creation Story · Cain and Abel · Abraham · Moses · David and Goliath · Job Students explore what happens in these stories, how they are interpreted by the tree Abrahamic religions, the teachings and the morals behind the stories and how they have an impact on believers’ lives.
| Students begin by exploring the Christian belief in the need for Jesus, and the concept of original sin. This is then followed by the exploration of what Christians believe the Holy spirit is and why Christians would celebrate Pentecost. This allows to students to understand how Christianity survived, developed and flourished. Moving on from this, students learn about the History of the church and why it has many denominations, where these came from and the differences between them. Students then move on to look at Christian practices such as the sacraments and prayer. This is important for students to understand what it means to be a Christian, what they do and what they believe. Finally, students study the Easter festival for Christians. These lessons cover what happened in the last days of Jesus’ life and how this is shown through worship today.
| ||
Assessment
| There are two assessments in this unit. Students create a rite of passage ritual for a new baby born on the Island this is peer marked by students. This is then reviewed by their teacher. The second assessment is an exam answer “Religion is good for communities” Students are asked to evaluate this statement arguing for and against using the information they have learnt in class to inform their answer. This is marked and fed back to students in line with the marking policy. | The assessment for this topic is a project-based mark where the students’ teacher will mark the students class work to assess their learning and comprehension. | Students finish the unit by writing an exam answer on whether “Easter is the most important part of being a Christian. Students are asked to evaluate this statement arguing for and against and using the information they have learnt in class to inform their answer. | ||

Year 8 | Topic Area/Key Question
| How important is home and tradition for Jews? | How do Christian values impact the lives of believers? | Why is submission and community important to Muslims? | How is Hinduism as a way of life? |
Unit 1 - This unit is the first of a series of lessons looking at the Abrahamic religions in depth in Chronological order. It links back to the year 7 unit on Stories from the Abrahamic religions and builds on the year 7 unit “The Island” by looking at community, rules, rituals and beliefs. The unit introduces key concepts/beliefs such as monotheism, which sets students up for Christianity and Islam in years 10 and 11. Students are expected to think about their own traditions and how these may add value to their lives.
Unit 2 - This unit also builds on the year 7 unit “What does it means to be a Christian? (Christian beliefs and practices)” by looking at how Christians address social issues. It fits within the main focus this year of the Abrahamic religions. This unit also introduces students to key concepts for the Ethics units in year 9 and the Year 10 GCSE which studies Religion and Ethics through Christianity. Students are expected to reflect on their own beliefs and values within this unit and to consider the value of tolerance.
Unit 3 - To consider different ways that theists express their religion and to consider different approaches to monotheism. Students consider the different religious faiths in the UK and the importance of understanding the variations in this. This unit sets students up for the Muslim Beliefs and Living the Muslim Life units in year 11. The basic knowledge that there are two main groups in Islam (Sunnis and Shi’as), which can then lead to different interpretations and applications of the holy text, is important and sets students up for deeper learning about Islam in year 11.
Unit 4 -Hinduism provides a contrasting faith to Abrahamic religions. It allows students to explore other ways of understanding monotheism. The relevance of religion to social structure and hierarchies can be discussed within this unit.
