| Description | The main question in the area "religion and education" in the Czech Republic is, whether this relationship is understood as religious education or information about religions. Thus the essence of the problem facing Czech basic and secondary education can be summarized, the problem that has not been thoroughly opened to the discussion of experts and general public yet. Religious education is contained in the educational subject entitled Religious Education and this is education of students leading them towards religion, i.e. the educational aim is to form religious faith. Usually this subject is taught by religious professionals and is voluntary. (With the exception of private religious schools, where it is compulsory). Information about religions should be contained (should, but in most cases this is not the case) e.g. in the educational subject called e.g. World Religions. |
