y9 rs visit

A crucial component of the Year 9 Religious Studies curriculum and teaching during the 3 year GCSE course is a visit to the Mosque to learn about the building and its importance to the community and to the Faith, and to gain a greater insight into, and understanding of, Islam.

Led by Ms Steadman and the RS team, over the course of 3 days this week, all UGS Year 9 classes visited the historic Manchester Central Mosque.

MCM has served the city centre vicinity since the early 1900s, and was originally comprised of 2 adjacent buildings until they were amalgamated and developed into MCM in the 1970s.

An enriching visit for all and the students also got to enjoy some fantastic hospitality!

With huge thanks to MCM for welcoming our students, to team RS for organising this wonderful learning opportunity for our students, and to Mr Uthman for the photography.
