2027 PP1 Religious Education Schemes of Work

2027 PP1 Religious Education schemes of work should help you plan, practise or review a clear learning goal. This page combines guidance for using schemes of work, an illustrative subject example, a follow-up task and general KCSERevision resource links. Adapt the activity to the current curriculum and the learning already taught in class.

PP1 Religious Education: KCSERevision resources

PP1 Religious Education: further practice

Choose material for the learner’s religious education pathway. Explain its message in context and discuss an everyday example while respecting different beliefs. Keep the activity playful and brief. Let the child respond by talking, pointing, moving or making before expecting a written response.

Planning check — PP1 Religious Education schemes of work: Compare the resource’s textbook or edition label with the book used in class. Rework dates and lesson spacing around the school calendar before adopting a sequence.

PP1 Religious Education: sequence learning with room to respond

A scheme of work connects curriculum intentions to a sequence over the available teaching period. Begin with the current design, school calendar and actual lesson allocation. Use existing resources as references, then adapt the order to prerequisite knowledge and the time needed for practice and feedback.

  1. Identify prerequisites. Before placing the example in a sequence, list the knowledge or skill needed to attempt it. A task that requires an untaught method may need an earlier lesson or a simpler representation.
  2. Plan progression. Move from recognition and explanation toward application or evaluation where appropriate. State what changes between one lesson and the next so that the sequence develops understanding rather than repeating similar worksheets.
  3. Allocate evidence checks. Place a short assessment after sufficient practice. Specify what response will show readiness to move forward and what support will be available when the evidence reveals a gap.
  4. Keep revision possible. Leave room for interruptions, reteaching and a changed pace. Record adjustments without erasing the original intention, so the plan remains understandable to another teacher.

Useful columns include period, outcome, learning experience, resources, assessment evidence and remarks. Add dates according to the actual school calendar. Do not invent 2027 term dates or present a copied sequence as already approved by the school.

Worked teaching example: explaining a value with evidence and respect

Illustrative activity: A learner finds a named exercise book after class. The owner has already left and needs it for homework.

Task

Describe a responsible action and connect it to a relevant teaching from the tradition studied in class. Identify the reference used for the explanation.

Worked reasoning or expected evidence

Giving the book to the agreed school contact and helping the owner recover it can demonstrate honesty and care. The subject explanation should draw on an accurate taught reference. Different traditions should be represented in their own terms rather than assigned an invented common quotation.

A common difficulty to check

Repeating a value word is less informative than explaining how the action expresses it. Show the connection and distinguish personal opinion from the reference being used.

Extend or adapt the task

Consider how the response changes when the owner cannot be identified. Discuss a school procedure that protects belongings and treats people respectfully.

PP1: make the first response concrete and playful

Use familiar objects, clear pictures, talk and movement before expecting a written answer. Give one instruction at a time and model a short response. Allow the child to point, name, sort or act to show meaning. If the example contains a written passage, an adult can read or retell a suitable short part. Observe what the child does independently and stop before the task becomes tiring. A hesitant spoken response can reflect unfamiliar vocabulary rather than absence of understanding. Record one specific observation to help choose the next activity.

Place the example in a sequence

Write a three-step sequence: prerequisite practice, the illustrated task and a changed application. State what evidence permits the class to move between steps. Leave the dates blank until you use the actual school calendar and lesson allocation.
