NSW public schools offer special religious education and special education in ethics, delivered by approved providers wherever available.
During enrolment, you can choose a special religious education option for your child from the school’s available approved providers. You can withdraw your child from special religious education by selecting alternative meaningful activities, or special education in ethics if it’s available.
You can update your preference by writing to the school or through the online form available at participating schools.
Visit the department’s website for more information about religion and ethics.
At Clarence Town Public School, SRE is delivered weekly by teachers who have been trained and are approved by the Presbyterian Church of Australia (NSW).
SEE is provided by Primary Ethics. For more information about SEE, including the authorised curriculum scope and sequence, please visit the Primary Ethics website.
Students not attending SRE or Ethics will be located in a separate space and will participate in meaningful activities such as reading, private study or completing homework.
Please see 'About our school/what we offer' for more information on the SRE and SEE curriculum.
