How to use them
- Choose the band for your class: KS1, KS2 or KS3-4.
- Use the KS1 places and books posters to start a conversation about what is special to pupils and their families.
- Display the festivals poster and add the actual dates for this year on sticky notes.
- Invite pupils who wish to share their own beliefs or practices, and let others ask respectful questions.
- Keep the KS3-4 study poster in view during debates, so pupils use evidence and show different views.
About these posters
KS1 covers special places and special books. KS2 covers six world religions (Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism and Sikhism) and a festivals poster. KS3-4 covers key terms, including non-religious worldviews such as humanism, and a poster on how to study a belief system respectfully. There are no pictures of holy figures. Every poster downloads as an A4 and an A3 PDF.
Questions
Are the posters balanced between faiths and worldviews?
Yes. They describe what followers believe and do, in the same style for each. They do not rank or judge beliefs, and they mention that many people hold other beliefs or none.
Why are only six religions shown?
These are the six most often taught in UK schools. Your agreed syllabus may include others, such as Jainism, Bahá’í or Zoroastrianism.
Are they suitable for all schools?
They suit community schools following an agreed syllabus. Faith schools can add their own material.
Who checked the facts?
The facts are general and standard. We suggest a member of your RE team, or a member of the community, reviews them against your syllabus.
