State & history

Under Article 44 of the Constitution, what right do children have in schools that receive State funding?

  • A To choose any school they like, whether or not there is a place
  • ✓ To attend the school without having to take part in religious instruction Your answer
  • C To be taught only through the Irish language
  • D To skip State exams if they wish

Correct!

Article 44.2.4 says that legislation providing State aid for schools must not affect the right of any child to attend a school receiving public money without attending religious instruction there. This protects freedom of conscience in education.
