Poland’s new rules on religion classes in public schools are raising serious concerns among parents, catechists, and bishops. Critics point out that scheduling religion classes as either the first or the last lesson of the day makes attendance difficult, especially for commuting students. Bishop Wojciech Osial stressed that Church representatives do not accept the marginalisation of religion classes, calling the decisions of the Ministry of National Education unfair to students and families.
