POSTPONED DUE TO SNOW - Religion in Irish primary Schools
Thursday, 1 March 2018, 9am – 4:30pm
Ireland has seen rapid social change in recent years. Successive Ministers have outlined plans to address the mismatch between a largely denominational (Catholic) primary education system, and increasing ethno-cultural and religious diversity.

Schools have a crucial role to play in terms of social integration and inclusion.
