This was despite huge efforts by parents to get proselytising evangelical organisations like Access Ministries out of state schools.
In 2014, Access Ministries, the main provider of religious education in Vic, gave biblezines to students telling them homosexuality is a sin.

Victorians should be worried by Matthew Guy and the Victorian Liberals continuing to give secret and covert undertakings to The Australian Christian Lobby.
By the way, The Global Project Against Hate and Extremism (GPAHE) has listed the ACL as a hate group.

Why are Liberals like @johnpesutto in progressive seats like Hawthorn silent on his party's secret deals with hate group, the ACL?
Hawthorn deserves better than a candidate who will support policies that harm LGBTIQ+ people just to secure the homophobic vote.

Homophobia is evil, and particularly so when it's peddled by the ACL who disguise it as concern while it's inherently hate.
That we have candidates like Pesutto hiding their party's secret nod to the massively homophobic and bigoted needs to be called out. #mel4hawthorn
