PINTO, Tiago. A religious program in a secular context: Catholic Moral and Religious Education teachers in the municipality of Porto. Sociologia [online]. 2021, n.tematico11, pp.97-117.  Epub 20-Fev-2022. ISSN 0872-3419.  https://doi.org/10.21747/08723419/soctem2021a5.

This article explores the programmatic representations of Catholic Moral and Religious Education (EMRC) teachers, regarding the discipline program, in public schools in the municipality of Porto (Portugal). Through a diachronic approach to the socio-religious panorama and Catholic religious teaching in Portuguese public schools, it is possible to identify, nowadays, new challenges for the Roman Catholic Church and for its school educators. The interviews carried out showed that teachers tend to consider the study plan as limited, unmotivating and with excessive religious contents, so they proposed a subject of moral and religious education not confined to the Catholic universe.

Palavras-chave : Catholicism; moral and religious education; teachers.
