TWO x 1 hour lessons, fully-resourced, detailed and differentiated PSHE (or possibly RE) lessons for Prevent + PSHE 2020-23 guidelines. The lessons cover how easy it is to be tricked into following a cult, rather than a genuine religious organisation.
Students will learn about the differences between cults and religions, what makes a good religious leader and how these qualities differ in cult leaders’ personalities. The lessons see students investigate five different figures from Islam, Christianity, Scientology, Buddhism and Heaven’s Gate. There is also a further focus on Heaven’s Gate as a typical example of a cult.
The lessons include detailed PowerPoints, information, differentiated activities, clips tasks with questions and active task (where you see which students were tricked into a cult and which weren’t). These resources have been designed to be engaging, detailed and easy to follow.
The PowerPoints are in the ZIP files. The images have been uploaded to show a few examples of the slides in the lessons :)

Really enjoyed teaching this lesson. Most of my class ended up poisoned and luckily had never heard of Jim Jones.
It was really fun! The ones who got poisoned were gutted :)
