Teaching RE at KS1
At KS1, children are required to study aspects of what it means to live life in the Christian traditions, along with a depth study of a second religion. If the depth study in addition to Christianity is selected from another Abrahamic tradition, an overview study should be designed to include a Dharmic tradition. If there are children from other traditions in the class, the teacher can also include these in an overview study at KS1 as well as study of non-religious perspectives. There are two recommended exemplar long-term plans for KS1 in Living Difference IV; to view, click https://re.hias.hants.gov.uk/ and go to pages 46-47.
In this section you will find exemplar KS1 plans and supporting resources for units of work which can be explored at any time during the academic year, which are applicable to more than one religion. They can be amended according to your religion in focus.
