Abstract: Focusing on the periodically polemic case in many countries of subjects related to religion, the present research analyzes the values in which the new curriculum of Catholic Religion teaching in Spain intends to educate. An axiological, analytical, and critical study of the legal text of the Resolution of 21 June 2022, of the Secretary of State for Education, by which the curricula for the teaching of Catholic Religion corresponding to Infant Education, Primary Education, Secondary Education and Baccalaureate is presented, specifically Annexe III, 'Catholic Religion in Compulsory Secondary Education'. The main objective of the work focuses on identifying the values, expressed and implicit, established by this resolution for the 12 to 16 years old stage, in accordance with an axiological model of comprehensive education, which has been validated. This is a documentary research, using the technique of content analysis, which is fundamentally qualitative. The results make evident the predominance of Social and Religious Values, followed by Intellectual and Moral ones, and the poor presence of Physical Values. Likewise, the results show that the representation of other values, such as Temporal and Aesthetic ones, can be improved. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
