In this unit pupils find out about the gurdwara and the role it plays in Sikh communities. Pupils develop their understanding of how religious beliefs are expressed in practice through studying the features of the gurdwara and the activities, including worship, that take place inside it. Pupils become aware of the diversity within Sikhism by comparing textbook examples of places of worship explored in the classroom with those explored through visits. They evaluate the importance of a place of worship to believers today. Learning from the visit the significance of the gurdwara for the Sikh 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.
