INSPIRE, an innovative approach to Religious Education created specifically for the new Junior Cycle specification, offers comprehensive resources for planning, teaching and assessing. INSPIRE follows a spiral approach, where students will meet and revisit Learning Outcomes on an ongoing basis. This will develop and embed their understanding, skills, attitudes and values all through the three years of Junior Cycle. It is suitable for both exam and non-exam classes. All five major world religions and non-religious worldviews are explored.

Features of INSPIRE

• Learning Outcomes have been carefully selected and grouped together in chapters. Chapters have then been grouped into units of learning. This reflects the approach recommended by the specification.

• Learning intentions, keywords and ice-breaker activities are included at the start of each chapter.
• Creative individual, pair- and group-work activities encourage students to engage with the content and to reflect on their learning in a variety of ways.
