Summary of contents
Whether or not your school has a dominant religious character, the statutory requirements are such that collective worship must be of a broadly Christian character – ie, reflecting the broad traditions of Christian belief. These acts of worship have been produced with this in mind and provide you with a resource that you can draw on whenever you need.
Christian Assemblies will provide you with a number of ready-made acts of collective worship. Each act of worship comes in a themed set of four, aimed particularly at:
- whole-school
- Key Stage 1
- Key Stage 2
This format provides a structure for collective worship during the week.
Valuable background information – there are 40 acts of worship in this collection. Each one is substantial and provides you with the following:
- engagement
- Bible reading
- Message and story
- prayer
