Religious Studies (GCSE) looks at Christianity and Buddhism, examines their beliefs and then asks how they affect how we live our lives. Gender and family, the value of life and equality and fairness are all thought about from the perspectives of these religions. This then gives us an opportunity to reflect on our own beliefs and values. We learn through listening to religions talking about themselves and to their followers, through what they put on YouTube, their art and poetry and their history. This is a way of deepening our understanding and becoming investigators into religion as a phenomenon in the modern world.
