Religion in Secular Education

What, in Heaven's Name, are We Teaching Our Children?

Cathy Byrne presents the secular principle as a guiding compass for religion in government schools in plural democracies. Using in-depth case studies, historical and contextual research from Australia, and comparisons with other developed nations, this book provides a comprehensive, at times confronting, analysis of the ideologies, policies, pedagogies, and practices for state-school religion.
