Westminster Faith Debates

These materials and links were provided for RE:ONLINE with the kind assistance of the University of Lancaster ‘s Department of Politics, Philosophy and Religion

The Westminster Faith Debates take place in central London every spring, and are open to the public free of charge. They bring together leading academics and public figures to debate the latest research on religion and values.  Each year, the debates explore a different theme.

The Westminster Faith Debates website hosts videos of each debate.  These videos offer RE teachers excellent resources and potential lesson starters, particularly for GCSE and A Level classes.

With the kind assistance of the University of Lancaster ‘s Department of Politics, Philosophy and Religion and the Westminster Faith Debates team RE:ONLINE has been able to tag the following videos, link them to GCSE and A Level syllabuses for AQA, Edexcel, OCR, and WJEC, and provide broad lesson plans and ideas for how each video might be used.
