Sikhism - Guru Gobind Singh Ji

Aim: to educate staff and students on the importance of the 10th Guru - Guru Gobind Singh Ji.

I have created an indepth and knowledgable PowerPoint for tutor groups. However this PowerPoint can be used in assemblies and RE lessons.

The PowerPoint contains videos, vocabulary and information/answers in the notes section at the bottom.

Duration: 1 hour or two half an hour tutor times.

Note to my fellow teachers:
In order to help eradicate hate and prejudice, education is the most important tool that we as teachers hold. But in the last 20 years, I have seen little progress in the education of Sikhs in secondary schools. Students are taught briefly in primary and secondary, but the lack of education and representation shocks me even more when qualified teachers in 2021 have no idea nor make the effort to find out.

Despite Sikhs being part of the UK for more than 100 years and being the fifth largest religion; people still continue to mistake them for other religions or have absolute no knowledge of them. Hate crime against Sikhs in the UK has increased by 70% in the last two years. I highly recommend this PowerPoint for your lessons, not just to give you and students the right knowledge in Sikhism, but to give Sikh students a sense of recognition and inclusiveness.
