Abstract

ABSTRACTThe aim of this article is to explore pupils’ views on integrative worldview education that encompasses pupils from both religious and non-religious backgrounds.1 The research material consists of surveys (n = 174) and pupil interviews (n = 40), which are analyzed with a mixed methods approach. The theoretical basis of this study are the concepts of worldview, safe place, dialogue and lived religion. The results of this study indicate that pupils find the integrative religious education class a safe place to learn about worldviews and encounter others. This study suggests that the removal of pupils’ physical separation on the basis of worldview has a significant positive impact on the experiences of adolescents.
