About this Event
To coincide with the ABC's move to Parramatta, join Andrew West and a panel of experts for a special recording of ABC RN's The Religion & Ethics Report, on June 27th 2024, from 5:45pm to 7pm in the Civic Gallery in PHIVE, Parramatta Square.
The focus of the program will be educating a diverse Australia. According to the ABS, the Catholic education system is the largest provider of learning outside of Australia's government schools - and enrolments into Catholic schools continue to grow. But within the schools themselves, over 40% of students who attend are in fact, not Catholic. So why do parents - religious and non-religious - decide to send their children to religious schools? What is it like for a non-Catholic student to attend a Catholic school? How do schools handle religious diversity in 2024? And what does the future look like for these schools? We’ll explore these questions in the context of Western Sydney – one of the most diverse multicultural and multifaith regions in Australia.
