Education must make children not only knowledgeable but also good people, said Minister of Education and Science Krasimir Valchev at a meeting with His Holiness Daniil, Patriarch of Bulgaria and Metropolitan of Sofia.
"We are discussing the introduction of a class on virtues and religions," said Minister Valchev. "Such classes exist in most European countries. It is common practice not to assign grades in these classes. If this lesson becomes mandatory, there will be an option to choose from different programs. Those who do not wish to study religion will be able to choose a class where ethics, virtues and values are taught", explained Minister Valchev.
Patriarch Daniil has already met with the Chief Mufti Dr. Mustafa Hadji at the Synodal Palace. The two agreed that religion should be introduced as a subject in the regular curriculum of Bulgarian schools, reported BTA.
