- Description
- Spirituality has received little in the way of explicit attention in Australian education. Something about the terms of secularism, as understood if not defined carefully in nineteenth century anti-religious scholarship and civic institutionalism omitted it as a serious consideration for both university and school education in the public domain. It is therefore a slippery topic for educational analysis; the closest we can come is to explore public policy in relation to theological and religious education, the former pertaining to the university and the latter to the school. This chapter will focus mainly on the situation in the public school.
