Religion and ethics

NSW public schools offer special religious education and special education in ethics, delivered by approved providers wherever available.

At Muirfield High School, students are able to participate in voluntary student activities of a religious nature (VSA) which includes prayer groups, student-led discussions of a religious nature and lunchtime clubs. All students who participate in VSA must have parental permission. The school monitors the content of VSA activities. VSA do not attempt to proselytise or convert non-adherents of any religion or faith.

There are currently no classes for Special Religious Education (SRE) or Special Education in Ethics (SEE) at Muirfield High School. However, the following provider, Liberty Baptist, has offered SRE at Muirfield. 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.

If your preferred Special Religious Education or Special Education in Ethics option is not available please contact the approved provider. Students not attending Special Religious Education or Special Education in Ethics are  supervised.
