    The headline is not correct.

    All religious symbols are banned for teachers. This is because the schools are supposed to be neutral when it comes to the question of faith. The teachers can believe in anything they want, and practice any religion in any way they want - but in their professional role, they must not favour any faith, be it explicitly or otherwise.

      I wonder wo strict you can enforce that, ot how true that is in the real world. Like no one would stop anyone wearing a cross with a dead guy on it. And they still hace religion class in school, but obviously just one religion. The teacher of my girlfriends then ü yesr old daughter told her that her mom wouldn’t be in the same afterlife as her, because she’d go to hell. It’s a fucked up thing to say imo, no matter what you believe, but i doubt anything would’ve come out of it if she made a big fuzz out of it. If it were a woman with a different believe with funny headgear on, this woyld’ve blown up like crazy.

        A teacher, while teaching? Of course they would, as that is now illegal.

        What the fuck. What a terrible teacher.
