This specification covers the content laid down by the Department for Education (DfE) subject content for GCSE Religious Studies. Students are required to study different faiths and non-religious beliefs in contemporary British society. They should be aware that religious traditions of Great Britain are, in the main, Christian, and that the religious traditions in Great Britain are diverse. They include Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism and Sikhism, as well as other religious and non-religious beliefs such as atheism and humanism. This knowledge may be applied throughout the assessment of the subject content.
