Make Religious Education optional for students from Year 7 to Year 13
Background
We want the Government to reform the school curriculum by making Religious Education an optional subject for all students between Years 7 and 13 to allow non-religious students to have their own beliefs and not have religion enforced on them.
Additional details
We feel that religious education is not necessary for student education, could make anyone at a school feel uncomfortable with their own religion (non-religion) and ensure inclusivity towards all.
