In particular, the principles and tests elaborated by the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child and the European Court of Human Rights should be outlined and the obligation on all organs of the State to act in accordance with the ECHR recalled.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-964","library","type-library","status-publish","hentry","resource_type-advice","resource_type-submission","resource_topic-education"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nAdvice on issues related to the manifestation of religious belief within schools - Ombudsman for Children<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.oco.ie\/ga\/library\/advice-issues-related-manifestation-religious-belief-within-schools\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"ga_IE\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Advice on issues related to the manifestation of religious belief within schools - Ombudsman for Children\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"This advice has been prepared further to a request from the Office of the Minister for Integration for our views on issues related to accommodating the manifestation of religious belief within uniform or dress codes in ...\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.oco.ie\/ga\/library\/advice-issues-related-manifestation-religious-belief-within-schools\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Ombudsman for Children\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/OCOIreland\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2018-01-09T12:30:08+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@OCO_ireland\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.oco.ie\\\/ga\\\/library\\\/advice-issues-related-manifestation-religious-belief-within-schools\\\/\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.oco.ie\\\/ga\\\/library\\\/advice-issues-related-manifestation-religious-belief-within-schools\\\/\",\"name\":\"Advice on issues related to the manifestation of religious belief within schools - Ombudsman for Children\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/preprod.oco.ie\\\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2008-08-10T09:41:01+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2018-01-09T12:30:08+00:00\",\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.oco.ie\\\/ga\\\/library\\\/advice-issues-related-manifestation-religious-belief-within-schools\\\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"ga-IE\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\\\/\\\/www.oco.ie\\\/ga\\\/library\\\/advice-issues-related-manifestation-religious-belief-within-schools\\\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.oco.ie\\\/ga\\\/library\\\/advice-issues-related-manifestation-religious-belief-within-schools\\\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Baile\",\"item\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.oco.ie\\\/ga\\\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Library\",\"item\":\"https:\\\/\\\/www.oco.ie\\\/ga\\\/library\\\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":3,\"name\":\"Advice on issues related to the manifestation of religious belief within schools\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\\\/\\\/preprod.oco.ie\\\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/preprod.oco.ie\\\/\",\"name\":\"Ombudsman for Children\",\"description\":\"The OCO investigates complaints about services provided to children by public organisations.
