Is there a place for religion in schools by Herbert Um (published in Ridley College magazine 2024)
In Victoria, GRE is part of the Learning about Worldviews and Religions in Humanities and Ethical Capability curriculum. GRE aims to help students develop an understanding of religious and non-religious worldviews, and to appreciate the values that underpin a multicultural society. GRE can help students to develop tolerance for other religions and world views as well as understand their own identity and the formation of other people’s identities. In the process it also serves to promote social cohesion.
