FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Ethics classes should be allowed to continue in NSW primary schools as an alternative to religious education, a parliamentary inquiry says.
An upper house inquiry into ethics classes has recommended the subject continues to be offered to pupils who do not want to attend scripture classes.
Committee Chair Marie Ficarra says the inquiry has made a number of recommendations aimed at improving the implementation and delivery of ethics classes.
“These recommendations relate to increasing the availability of information for parents, improving access to the Special Religious Education (SRE) and ethics curriculums, (and) ensuring suitable training of volunteer teachers,” Ms Ficarra said in a statement on Wednesday.
The ethics organisation Primary Ethics has welcomed the recommendations, saying they are “consistent with the bulk of community opinion”.
“The inquiry has been a helpful way to examine the issues surrounding the provision of both ethics and SRE,” Simon Longstaff, executive director of St James Ethics Centre and a board member of Primary Ethics, said in a statement.
Primary Ethics has established ethics classes in almost 200 NSW primary schools.
