520 |a This study is a compendium of information regarding the policy and practice of religious education in publicly-funded schools in each of the provinces and territories of Canada, in England, the United States, Australia, and with less detail, in several countries of Western Europe. Most information was acquired from published sources, but letters and telephone calls provided supplemental material. An account of the laws, policies, and regulations dealing with the prohibition of, permission for, or requirement of religious education is set within a brief description of the types of publicly-funded school systems in each jurisdiction. Included is information with regard to who may teach religious education, how it is timetabled, and what provisions are made for those who dissent. Also included is information on interpretations of "religious education" and the role of the school in the religious education of students, and some mention of the controversies surrounding that role. References to curriculum materials are provided. An overview summarizes the information, compares jurisdictions, makes some pertinent classifications, draws attention to some important patterns in policy, and provides the reader with an introductory guide for further reading in the study. Extensive references within the text and a three-page bibliography are provided. (Author)
