In this unit pupils find out about a place of worship and the role it plays in a religious community. Pupils develop their understanding of how religious beliefs are expressed in practice through studying the features of the place of worship and the activities, including worship, that take place inside it. Pupils become aware of the diversity within the religion by comparing textbook and virtual tour examples of places of worship explored in the classroom with those explored through a visit. They evaluate the importance of a place of worship to believers today. They learn from the visit the significance of the place of worship for the faith community and local people. Pupils reflect on places that have significance for them in the local community. They explore ways in which places in their local community might have significance for them.
This unit is expected to take approximately 7 hours.
