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.
Changes to Scripture/Ethics groups
Changes can only be requested at the end of the school year, for the following year. Please send an email to the school email address and include your child's full name, current class, current group and the group you would like your child moved into. Changes must be submitted prior to day one of term one.
