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 (SRE)
At Jilliby Public School we offer the following options for SRE:
- Christian (delivered by providers from Wyong Baptist Church)
The curriculum for these weekly 30 minute lessons can be found at: https://godspace.org.au
Students not attending SRE or SEE are given supervised alternative meaningful activities
A parent/carer may at any time notify the school in writing that they wish to change their decision. Students will continue the same arrangement as the previous year, unless a parent/carer has requested a change in writing.
