This circular does not alter that multi-denominational basis by which religious
instruction is provided or amend any of the deeds, or legal instruments concerned.
It may have been reasonable when the schools were established for a school to
assume that its pupil population was predominately Catholic and to make
arrangements for religious instruction and worship exclusively on that basis.
Historically some ETB schools in addition to meeting Catholic needs also made
provision for religious instruction that met the needs of pupils from local Protestant
communities. Depending on their future pupil composition as multi-denominational
schools, Community and ETB schools may have to make provision for religious
instruction for those from other minority religions should it be required.
