The pack now contains a range of updated materials and new chapters that can be used for: · Good practice; learning through group discussion, supporting discussion of sensitive issues - faith and beliefs, government's proposed legislation on "earned citizenship" ·Teaching and learning activities to stimulate learners' interests, support their learning needs and promote multi-faith and multi-cultural dialogue.
