| 520 | |a This paper provides an historical account of church-state issues in education in Trinidad as it pertains to the government's thrust in Anglicisation and puts forward the formidable challenges the East Indian diaspora encountered for recognition to establish their own schools. The paper develops a key area of focus with an interrogation of the relationship between church and state and religion and politics. The Hindu initiative to build Hindu schools in pursuit of academic achievement merged with the entry of Hindus into frontline politics under the leadership of Bhadase Sagan Maraj. Hindu resistance to government's proposed state secular education system premised on the Aristotelian theory of the Ideal State was meant to avoid cultural absorption of Hindus and loss of their religious identity. The Hindu stance on education in mid-twentieth century Trinidad was strengthened through the merger of religion and politics, characterised by Hindu entry into political leadership as they sought redress for exclusion of Hindus from the total ensemble of historical principles and practices that governed church and state in education. | ||
