Inspired by AQA GCSE Religious Studies Theme A: Chapter 3 Relationships & Families.
This lesson focuses on understanding the purpose and significance of families from both religious and secular perspectives. Students will explore why the family is considered an important institution, examining its roles in providing love, support, education, and moral guidance within society.
The lesson will then analyse key religious teachings on the role of the family, focusing on how different faiths, such as Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, and Judaism, view the family as central to fulfilling spiritual, moral, and social responsibilities. Sacred texts, such as the Bible and Qur’an, will be used to illustrate these teachings.
Students will also compare religious perspectives with secular views, which emphasise personal choice, equality, and societal changes in the understanding of family structures.
Through discussions, textual analysis, and group activities, students will critically examine how the concept of family reflects values, traditions, and cultural changes, developing an appreciation for the diversity of views on family life.
