Jumu’ah (Islam)

Religious education

Year 2

This project teaches children about Jumu’ah, which are Friday prayers. Before Jumu’ah, many Muslims wash, put on perfume or aftershave and dress in clean clothes. Just after lunchtime, worshippers meet at the mosque to say special prayers and listen to a talk by the Imam. The importance of saying Friday prayers is mentioned in the Qur’an and Muhammad called Friday the best day.

This project is part of the Love to Celebrate series which cover six major world religions: Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism and Sikhism. It is only available through an annual licence for Curriculum Maestro.

The lesson plans in the projects are clear and well sequenced. They were developed with RE specialist teachers, so there is no need to worry about saying the wrong thing or using inaccurate terminology. Teachers can save hours of planning and hunting for resources, as all projects come with essential resources and links to useful books and websites.

We are in a much better place with CM than with our old curriculum. We will be making it more bespoke in the second year.

I have used Cornerstones from its first launch. The product has been refined over time as it is driven by feedback from schools and teachers delivering the content. The company is also responsive to a school's needs.

Maestro is a real time saver, particularly for leadership teams and subject leaders. There is a wealth of information and resources which can be used and adapted by creative skills teachers. The way the curriculum is mapped is excellent and was commented on in a very recent Ofsted inspection.

I have recommended and told many other schools and school staff about it. I would always though suggest that they need to ensure it is right for their school setting and the needs of their staff and pupils.

It has been a revelation. Staff are finding their way through it and if we have any questions, the support from Cornerstones is amazing. We always get answers to our questions. It is now our one-stop-shop for curriculum with linked up thinking and approach through an intuitive and user-friendly system.
