How much religion is taught/focussed on at Catholic Secondary Schools?

The sex education in my all girls Catholic school was excellent. They were non judgemental, factual and given by the school nurse. Included contreception info, including abstience, condoms, pill, etc. Not just one off classes but a series through the semester. We also had biology lesssons where we also watched birth videos and learnt about the reproductive organs.

My husband had a similar exp in his all boys school (also Catholic).

I had to come back and say, I am really happy I went to a Catholic Secondary (even if it was all girls!). I ended up leaving to go to a state school (they weren't big on sports and I wanted to be a PE teacher then), and the biggest difference I noticed was the sense of community and belonging I felt at the Catholic school.
