Zusammenfassung: | Are religious schools fit to prepare students with the social competencies required for life in a pluralistic society, or do they offer a sheltered school experience, which deprives them of adequate socialization opportunities?

In this article, the tensions around the place of religion within Australia's education system and the adequacy of religious schools to prepare students to contribute to the nation's social cohesion and pluralistic workplaces are investigated. |
