CUREDI043BE006 1) Whether a public-authority school can expand a ban on wearing religious signs based on its neutrality policy to apply to religious education teachers (when they are outside their classrooms), or whether the school must provide an exception for this particular category. 2) Whether the constitution places limits on the neutrality principle as it applies to state schools, given that the constitution also requires these schools to offer a wide range of religious courses taught by a special category of teachers who must be able to credibly represent their religion in their position at these public-authority schools.
