Description
  • Lecture given at the Centre for the Study of Australian Christianity. Van Eyk shares results of a parent survey conducted in 1992, at a Secondary Boys School in Adelaide. Survey asked parents to rank their reasons for selecting Catholic Schooling. Religious motivation is often secondary to considerations such as ‘better academic education’ and ‘reputation for discipline’. Catholic schools often perceived by parents as a more affordable form of private education, with pastoral care, greater advantage in the labour market, improved entry to tertiary institutions and improved life opportunities.
