Religion, a subject in decline

Among the words hidden in the word search there are fast, charity, Passover... Concepts specific to the Easter calendar, which religion teacher Pau Estanyol uses to introduce them in the class he teaches at La Vall del Terri School (Pla de l'Estany). Of the more than 250 students at the school, only two in the first year of primary school and one in the second year are taking this subject. This is the reality experienced by many Catalan public schools: the percentage of students who took religion in public schools during the 2023-2024 academic year was 10.50% (69,571 students out of 662,315 total students), according to data from the Department of Education. In private schools, including subsidized schools, the figure rises to 62.73% (198,696 students out of 320,821 total students).
