Bill: Education Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Trigunskaya Natsional'naya Partiya
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: October 3589
Description[?]:
| The state is to hand over the running of the entire schooling system (up to age 16) to the Trigunian National Church, which will do a first class job of providing all our children with an excellent education and instilling them with a real sense of traditional Hosian values. No organisation outside the Trigunian National Church will be permitted to run a school. We will continue, of course, to provide these schools with the funding they require to function. The Church will run a mixture of "free schools", which will be available to everyone and free to everyone, and "fee-paying schools" for wealthier parents, which will be partly subsidised but partly funded by fees paid by parents. Sergei Filipov Minister of Education & Culture |
