Abstract
the study aims at identifying a religious education curriculum design for
tansforming the teaching of religious education from the inculcation of religious
octrines of a denominational nature (Religious instructions) to learning about and
understanding other religions (Religious studies).
the current religious education (RE) syllabus is faith-based, in two divisions of
slam Religious Education (I.RE) and Christian Religious Education(CRE). It is
religious instruction that is inculcation of religious doctrines of a denominational
Lature. The Primary School Curriculum Review(PSCR) team observed that the two
faith approach encourages disunity whereas the constitution and aims of primary
education are committed to National unity and tolerance of other religions.
the Primary School Curriculum Review(PSCR) team (June 2004) recommended
-Or a common approach to the R.E syllabus and integration of some aspects of the
IB content into other subject areas.
[he faith leaders of UJCC and UMSC rejected the common approach and the
ntegration of the content as disguised intention to make RE teaching uniform and
!xcluding the IRE and CRE influence on the young.
fhe study assesses the grounds on which the recommendations and objections were
nade in order to suggest a common design for a multi-faith society that promotes
llnity and tolerates other religions.
The findings of the study revealed that although the recommendations were made in
good faith, they were vague and open to varied interpretations.
In particular the integration vvas confused with provisions of education facilities
which rightly imply disregard of differences.
