| Article 42
1. The State acknowledges that the primary and natural
educator of the child is the Family and guarantees to respect the inalienable
right and duty of parents to provide, according to their means, for the
religious and moral, intellectual, physical and social education of their
children.
2. Parents shall be free to provide this education in
their homes or in private schools or in schools recognised or established by
the State.
3. 1° The State shall not oblige parents in violation
of their conscience and lawful preference to send their children to schools
established by the State, or to any particular type of school designated by the
State.
2° The State shall, however, as guardian of the common good, require
in view of actual conditions that the children receive a certain minimum
education, moral, intellectual and social.
4. The State shall provide for free primary education
and shall endeavour to supplement and give reasonable aid to private and
corporate educational initiative, and, when the public good requires it,
provide other educational facilities or institutions with due regard, however,
for the rights of parents, especially in the matter of religious and moral
formation.
5. In exceptional cases, where the parents for
physical or moral reasons fail in their duty towards their children, the State
as guardian of the common good, by appropriate means shall endeavour to supply
the place of the parents, but always with due regard for the natural and
imprescriptible rights of the child.
