Religions, Beliefs and Viewpoints Course Introduction Presentation 1: Which religions, beliefs and viewpoints are currently present in Scotland?

Course Introduction Research, plan, deliver and evaluate a religion, beliefs and viewpoints fair, reflecting your local community. You will develop an understanding of the impact that religions and beliefs, together with other viewpoints, have had on your local community. You will be given an opportunity to organise a one-off event to demonstrate how religion, beliefs and viewpoints are represented in your area. This course will help you to understand the beliefs, values, practices and traditions of people within your own community. It will also enable you to assess and review your own beliefs and values, and develop a wider understanding of the world in which you live and the wider world into which you will enter when you leave school. It is also hoped that you will gain skills in organisation and people management and be able to reflect more deeply on religion, beliefs and viewpoints.

Background In 2011, Scotland’s Census found that 54% of the population stated their religion to be Christian. This unit is designed to give you the opportunity to gain a better understanding of which religions, beliefs and viewpoints are present in Scotland today, especially in your local area. How far does your local community reflect the Census for Scotland generally and what does it mean to have a religion, a belief or a viewpoint?
