The Website
The People of God
Framework is provided as
a full PDF document for
each Year, as well as
being broken down into
specific units for ease of
access.
An Overview of the whole
framework, as well as just
the specific year, is
available within each year
group and the Teacher’s
Resource [TR] section.
FRAMEWORK
CAFOD have also been
involved in the
development of the
framework and have
provided links to their
own resources to help
support users.
The People of God website
is designed to be used as a
service.
To assist our users in
adapting our resources, and
designing and creating their
own with ease, we provide a
bank of images from a
variety of different themes.
Each image has been
checked by our team and is
provided in high definition
where possible.
IMAGES
The images can be used in
any manner of resource
from PowerPoint and Word
to video, or enlarged on a
projector for further study.
All of our files can
also be viewed
within the site for a
‘quick-look’ at
what we are
providing.
This is very helpful
when selecting
images, but is also
an important tool
when deciding to
download a
particular
PowerPoint, Word
or PDF document.
LIGHTBOX
All you need to do
is click on the file
image to open up
the LightBox.
Over time we will be
providing more and more
video resources to
support the framework.
These videos, ranging
from talking heads Q&A
sessions to tutorial videos
for use of the site and
resources, are all high
definition and have been
checked by our team.
We may also provide
videos which have been
supplied to us by other
sources. These will also
be checked thoroughly by
our team.
VIDEOS
All of the videos are
downloadable as well as
viewable within the site.
All of the videos on the
website are viewable
through the site using
LightBox.
By clicking the button to
watch, or by clicking the
file image, you can view
the entire video without
waiting for it to download.
All of these videos are
embedded using YouTube,
so if your school or LEA
blocks YouTube this will
not work for you.
VIDEO
LIGHTBOX
Blocking YouTube should
not, however, restrict your
ability to download the file
for viewing.
We know how prevalent
PowerPoint is in schools,
and we know how timeconsuming it can be, putting
together a good one.
We have provided a
number of simple
PowerPoint Presentations
that have been designed by
our team of RE advisors,
teachers and experts in the
field, and then crafted with
care and attention.
The PowerPoint we provide
can be used immediately or
used as templates to build
upon or adapt to suit the
needs of your lesson.
POWERPOINT
We have also used
PowerPoint to create some
great pieces of interactive
work.
These PowerPoints use
hyperlinks and buttons, as
well as other tools, to create
interactive slideshows and
‘point-and-click’ activities.
The joy of these interactive
activities is, because they
use PowerPoint, you can
adapt them in any way you
wish, or use them as a
template to create your own.
INTERACTIVE
POWERPOINT
Remember, this is a service
website, not just a resource
bank.
These interactive
activities cannot be
altered by the user and
have been created as a
‘standalone’ piece of
work.
These programmes are
only compatible with PCs
but work great on an
interactive White Board.
The WordSplats are
simple point and click
activities which can be
used by individuals or as
a group activity.
INTERACTIVE
WORDSPLATS
More Interactive
resources of various
styles will be added as
time goes on.
We are also providing a
wide variety of paperbased activities for use in
class.
These activities are
provided as PDF
documents for design
reasons and so are very
difficult to alter. However,
all of the activities are
perfect to use as
templates for your own
work if they do not provide
what you need
themselves.
ACTIVITIES
All of these activities are
designed by the same
group of writers who
created the People of God
framework.
As part of our service we
are scouring the internet for
any and all useful resources
which could be used to
support the RE in your
class.
Although we cannot be
responsible for every
website we link to, we do
check each link thoroughly
and regularly to ensure it is
appropriate.
EXTERNAL
LINKS
User Feedback is one way
we can improve all of our
services, so if you know of
any excellent resources we
can link to then let us know.
We know that most of our
users will not have time to
go through every section of
the website to see how it
works, so we have provided
a comprehensive userguide, with supporting
videos, to help you get the
most out of the People of
God website.
As the site changes, so will
the user-guide, ensuring
that our users are never
missing out on something
that could be useful.
USERGUIDE
On each and every page of the
site you will find the footer.
This contains the terms and
conditions, as well as the
privacy policy which covers the
site.
You will also find the feedback
and contact forms.
We really want to know what
you have to say and part of the
service we provide is having a
team of people available to you
for technical help or even to
inform us of a spelling mistake.
FOOTER
We want to know how we can
best provide for our users, and
your feedback will have a real
impact on our services.
