How the label is set
One word, as the publisher describes itself on its own pages: secular or faith-based. Where its pages don't settle it, we say “not stated”. We say nothing else about it.
How cost is worked out
One child, one year of the main package, at the price the publisher's page showed on the date checked. Prices change: the publisher's page is the final word. A curriculum with no listed price has no cost band and shows only when cost is “Any”.
