520 $a Ontario public schools have become a focal point---and contested sites---where the dichotomy of a proclaimed secular stance must be reconciled with the legal duty to accommodate diverse faiths and religions.
520 $a This exploratory case study examines the experiences of principals in addressing the challenge of ensuring the public school is positioned as secular, while simultaneously accommodating the faiths and religions of Ontario's increasingly diverse, multi-cultural society. When competing rights under the Canadian Charter or Human Rights Code come into conflict it can present a complex challenge.
520 $a To provide context for this exploratory case study jurisprudence, legislation and school policy, developed post-Charter, are reviewed. With this legal framework data from interviews with twelve elementary and secondary principals from five Ontario public boards are examined to learn how the principals enact, integrate, and mobilize the duty to accommodate faith and religion in their 'secular' schools. What is the impact on how schools function? How is conflict managed when religious tenets conflict with other equal but competing rights, such as sex equity, same sex relationships, or freedom of speech? Is there a tipping point---a point of 'undue hardship'---where a principal must declare a religion-based request as deleterious to the rights of others, and thus impossible to accommodate?
520 $a The study demonstrates the legal duty to accommodate faith and religion in Ontario's bourgeoning multi-faith society adds to the complexity of the principal's role in ensuring the religious diversity of students and staff is recognized, included and integrated into the fabric of our public schools. The study also demonstrates the successful accommodation of faith and religion is facilitated through the principal's mindset of inclusivity, respect for difference, engagement with the community---including religious leaders---and knowledge of the law. The growing influence of Muslims and Islam in our schools and their accommodation needs are also recognized.
520 $a Principals particularly acknowledge the new health education curriculum which has created discord with Christians and non-Christians. Opposition to content on same-sex relationships places principals in an untenable position between accommodating religious beliefs and safeguarding the rights of the LGBTQ communities. Principals are greatly challenged by the dilemma.
