Libertatea de conștiință și ora de religie în școli
Freedom of conscience and religion classes in schools

Summary/Abstract: The National Education Act, with its subsequent amendments and completions regulates from the start, which are the mandatory and optional training modules. The Disciplines / fields of study or compulsory training modules constitute the core curriculum governed by law of which religion is also a part along with the Romanian language and literature, mathematics, history, physics, etc. The legal provisions governing the teaching of religion in schools had been over time subject to two exceptions of unconstitutionality, in 2012 and in 2013. Surprisingly, the decisions of the Constitutional Court in this matter (Decision 306 of 27 March 2012 and Decision no. 669 of 12 November 2014) are contradictory with regard to the final decision in adopting the solution of unconstitutionality, the Court ignoring all international and European provisions invoked on its decision of March 2012.
