Summary/Abstract: Global changes have increased the sensitivity of introducing religions other than Islam to the new generation in the world and in our country. For this reason, other religions and beliefs are included in the curricula of Religious Culture and Moral Knowledge (RCMK) courses in our country. In the curriculum of Secondary Education Religious Culture and Moral Knowledge (METKAB) course, there are acquisitions related to other religions that are expected to be acquired by students. In the literature review, it is seen that there is limited research on the place of teaching other religions in the education system, especially in the curriculum of ODKAB course. The aim of this study is to determine how other religions are included in the current ODKAB curriculum in terms of the overall curriculum, objectives, unit contents and outcomes. In the study, it was concluded that the current OCCKAB curriculum includes the teaching of religions other than Islam, and that the teaching of other religions is approached impartially, with a religious perspective and objectively, but there are deficiencies in terms of subject matter and achievements.
