I'm currently employed as a Subject Leader of Religious Education, Philosophy and Ethics at an outstanding grammar school. I am currently reading a PhD in Philosophy, having obtained an MA in Philosophy of Religion and and a BA in Philosophy. The resources I create and sell are those I use myself. I aim for my lessons to include a range of activities and for students to not only learn about my subject, but find doing so interesting.

Morality - Virtue Ethics

Morality - Virtue Ethics

(0)
This lesson is the fourth of four lessons on ethics, which culminates in an Edexcel GCSE-Style assessment. Though designed as a sequence, each lesson can be taught without the others. The scheme of work was designed for a particularly gifted year 8 set however, would definitely be suitable for all of KS3 and KS4. This lesson could easily last two hours. It investigates the development of Virtue Ethics as an ethical theory, examining how it is applied, and its strengths and weaknesses as an ethical theory. Please leave a review for this lesson.
