A small update to the RMPS revision website: there’s now a random question generator to help senior pupils practise exam-style questions.

2M have been exploring life after death in RMPS. As part of learning about reincarnation, we looked at karma and how Snakes and Ladders helped teach the cycle of samsara. Pupils then created their own boards showing how actions have consequences. Brilliant work!☸️🕉️
