Sunday school student

Weekend religious learner

A Sunday school student is someone, typically a child or teenager, who attends religious education classes held at a church, usually on Sunday mornings.

The term can suggest innocence or naivety: He's no Sunday school student—he knows how the game is played.

Used this way, it implies someone sheltered from the rougher aspects of life.
