The Code of Conduct requires that chaplains respect the rights of parents to raise children in line with their own religious and moral convictions. How will this work in a religious-based school?
There is no reason why this requirement should be in conflict with current practices in religious-based schools. When enrolling their children in these schools, parents agree to have their children taught in that environment. In many schools parents are fully informed of the values espoused in the school and actively ‘sign on’ to have their children taught in that particular religious environment. Persons providing chaplaincy services may also conduct services according to the faith of the school if they are appropriately qualified to do so.
