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.
Special Religious Education takes place weekly on a Wednesday between recess and lunch, and is provided by the Anglican Archdiocese of Sydney with volunteers from Blast Ministries Bankstown.
Information on the curriculum followed by this group can be found at the following links:

Currently, there are no provisions for Special Ethics Education (SEE) in secondary schools.
