The belief that education systems across Australia can and should be standardised through the application of scientific administration 'from above' dominated education policy at both a national and state level between 1999 and 2015. During that period the teaching of religion for Anglicans in Anglican schools was influenced by State and Commonwealth led curriculum reforms. Religious education in Anglican schools remained outside the boundaries of the government led reforms. Despite that, key personnel in the Anglican Church sought to model Anglican religious education curricula on the government reforms to the mandated curriculum areas. While the period under review in that chapter aligns with 'the Education Revolution' and there were many revolutionary ideas that influenced curriculum in Western Australia the changes to religious education in Anglican schools could be better described as an evolution of reforms.
