Issues of church and school are in the focus of ICCS. Relations between church and school differ due to context and history. Cooperation exists as well as clear separation. However most churches have a concern for good education and good schooling. In some contexts churches are owners of schools in other contexts churches cooperate in Religious Education. General developments in society influence the relation between church and school. Secularization and pluralization have led to a more distanced relation between church and school.
