This strand presents 4 four mini documentaries
on key religious topics that students aged 14-16
often study. In these 'short histories', some big
questions, illustrated by perspectives and snippets
from the history of religion, are posed. The answers
will require more unpacking through teaching and
learning activities, but the aim here is to provide
some brief provocation from religions on topics
like suffering, life beyond the grave, environment
and inequality.

people loads of information and the chance
to make up their own minds on religious issues.
These programmes do that. |
