Why Is the Sacrament of Confirmation Important? – KS3 Catholic RE Lesson
This fully resourced and engaging Year 7 lesson supports pupils in understanding why the Sacrament of Confirmation is such an important part of Catholic life. Rooted in the KS3 Religious Education Directory (RED) and informed by Source & Summit for Year 7, the lesson explores how Confirmation strengthens the gifts of the Holy Spirit, helps Catholics grow in holiness, and prepares them to live out their unique calling from God.
Carefully designed for pupils with a reading age of 10, the resource includes rephrased Scripture (e.g. Isaiah 11:2–3, 1 Corinthians 12:4), simple definitions of key terms, and misconceptions for pupils to correct. Visual clipart of the Gifts and Fruits of the Holy Spirit brings the content to life, and structured tasks help pupils explain and evaluate the impact of Confirmation using Catholic beliefs.
Perfect for Catholic RE teachers looking to deliver a clear, reflective, and accessible introduction to one of the Church’s most powerful sacraments.
