This Religion and worldviews video introduces teachers to the unit “How and why are we here?” and supports children in exploring different beliefs about the origins of the world. The video prepares teachers to guide children through Jewish, Christian, Hindu and Muslim creation stories, alongside humanist beliefs based on science. Teachers are supported to develop pupil understanding of key concepts including creation, God, belief and interpretation, while encouraging pupils to reflect on their own ideas and ask big questions.

This video is part of Kapow Primary’s Religion and worldviews resources – the world. It provides essential teacher guidance for exploring diverse worldviews, addressing common misconceptions, and helping children consider how people within and beyond religious traditions find meaning in the world around them.
