QCA

Where the unit fits in

This unit can be taught in year 7. It builds on earlier studies of religious figures and of the Bible, from the key stage 2 scheme of work. The unit focuses on developing understanding of justice, in this case from leading figures in Christianity. The unit raises questions for pupils about justice, what matters most and what human qualities make a person a leader.

The unit prepares pupils for GCSE work in RE/RS by developing their understanding of the relationship between tradition, scripture and modern practice, ethics and beliefs.
