How scripture shapes worldviews

This Religion and worldviews video introduces teachers to the key ideas behind the unit “What is religion, why do worldviews change, and how can they be expressed?” equipping them with the knowledge to guide children in exploring how scripture, authority and history shape religious understanding. It covers how children examine Christian beliefs through the lens of the Bible—considering how it was written, translated, and interpreted over time—and its influence on British culture. The video highlights how to support children in discussing different interpretations of scripture and how beliefs and texts can evolve, while encouraging personal reflection and critical thinking in a respectful classroom environment.

This video is part of Kapow Primary’s Religion and worldviews resources – the bible. It simplifies complex concepts, ensuring teachers feel confident and prepared to help children explore the development and impact of religious texts in the lesson and unit below.
