Education in the Blackhelm Confederacy is significantly influenced by the Catholic Church, with limited access and quality beyond the elementary level. The country lacks a comprehensive public education system, and educational opportunities are heavily shaped by socioeconomic and racial factors.
Structure and Funding
Most children in the BC receive free education up to the sixth grade in schools managed by the Catholic Church. These church-run schools are funded by a mandatory church tax (tithe) of 3% that all citizens are required to pay. The curriculum includes instruction in both Latin and English, with lessons primarily conducted in Latin. Latin remains the primary language of the BC, although English has gained prominence as a prestige language since the 19th century.
Church Influence
The Catholic Church plays a significant role in the education system of the BC, supported by the 3% tithe collected from all citizens. This funding not only sustains church-run schools but also supports various church initiatives and programs. The Church's influence on education extends to broader societal norms and values, reinforcing traditional structures within the BC.
Church-run schools often include daily prayers, weekly mass, and religious festivals as part of school life. These activities are integral to the curriculum and aim to instill Catholic values in students.
