This Year 9 Religious Education resource delves into essential questions about relationships, fairness, and the search for meaning in our lives and society. Students will engage with challenging topics such as the nature of love, marriage, contraception, and the impact of media on equality. We also explore the value of religion in a secular world, human existence, and our responsibilities towards one another and the environment. This comprehensive guide aims to facilitate thoughtful discussions and reflections on these complex issues.
