About this unit This unit is intended to explore becoming an adult and discuss the themes that are addressed by different religious initiation ceremonies and their effect on people’s lives. Not all religions have specific ceremonies welcoming members into adulthood but Christianity, Judaism, Sikhism and Hinduism do. In this unit we will look at three religions: Christianity, Judaism and Sikhism, together with a non-religious view: humanism. This unit allows pupils to consider the commitment involved in deciding to become a full member of a religious community. Prior learning: This unit will build on the work completed in Year 3 on birth ceremonies. Lesson length: The lessons are designed to last approximately 60–70 minutes.
