Abstract | This chapter reviews the suggestion in a recent influential report that there are three approaches to religion in education - instruction, formation and education - of which only the third is legitimate in publicly-funded educational institutions. The chapter challenges this suggestion, arguing that the the distinction between education and formation is invalid and the contrast is between formation that is based on instruction or formation that is educational in character. |
