6. Should religion be kept out of schools, as Aine argues?

Post by smkelly »

We encounter Aine Kamara at a time when sheʼs reassessing her lifelong dream of becoming a writer since an opinion piece she had published in a national newspaper was met with backlash both at her school and online. The essay argued that religion should be kept out of schools.

Is this a reasonable argument? How might that change affect education and day-to-day life for students?
