  • Career-Long Professional Learning: Islam
    Religious and Moral Education / Religious Education in Roman Catholic Schools Professional Learning Paper Career-long Professional Learning: Islam The purpose of this professional learning paper This professional learning paper aims to support Career-long Professional Learning (CLPL) in Religious and Moral Education specifically in relation to teaching about Islam. This paper has been produced collaboratively by Education Scotland and the Muslim Council of Scotland and the Alwaleed Centre at the University of Edinburgh to support practitioners t o develop and deepen their knowledge and understanding of Islam and so support the delivery of high quality learning and teaching about Islam in the Broad General Education. This briefing paper aims to support practitioners through Career-long professional Learning (CLPL) around Islam and Muslim belief and life. It is important to note that CLPL is a career-long process and that there is no expectation that practitioners can answer all of the questions contained in this paper now. Instead these questions should guide practitioners through reflecting and evaluating their own knowledge and understanding. This should support practitioners in planning and delivering high quality religious and moral education which addresses learning about Islam accurately and authentically. This will assist learners in developing their understanding of Muslim beliefs, values, practices and traditions and so contribute to improved understanding of Islam, and a greater awareness of the diversity of belief in modern Scotland. It is considered that understanding Muslim beliefs, values and practices and traditions will contribute significantly to a Scotland where everyone is valued and respected. What do I know and understand about Islam? The Route Map through CLPL in RME provides broad guidance around developing professional knowledge and understanding in RME, and is a good starting point for practitioners in considering how to broaden and deepen their knowledge and understanding of a topic area in RME.
