He announced the exemption, without justification, from the teaching of Religious Studies for those students who wish to do so……..
today the Deputy Minister of Education, Anagnostopoulou Co.
In an interview with "Kokkino", the minister emphasized that it is not possible for the student to declare his religion in a public document, in order to secure the exemption.
As the minister said, the parent should state that they would like their child not to do Religious without any reference positive or negative to religion. "Unfortunately we haven't changed it until now, we will change it" he said.
And he added: "To respect the church and the religious authorities of the place is undeniable for everyone. There is no problem with the minister either, neither mine with the Church nor with any religious authority. But the issue is the identification or confusion of the religious spaces with the public which is par excellence secular and non-religious. We respect religion, the church, her space, but there is also a public space where the state is obliged to ensure secularism".
Regarding the gaps in schools, the minister estimated that until 10 By October the vacancies in all schools will have been filled, with priority given to Special Schools.
