NSW public schools offer special religious education and special education in ethics, delivered by approved providers wherever available.
The school has utilised the Federal Government Chaplaincy program to support the welfare of students at the school within the intended framework and guidelines set by the Department.

At Carlingford High School SRE (special religious education) is delivered once a week for 10 weeks and offered to students in Year 7 and 8 to participate.
