False. My school being a Church Of England school has a right to reserve 51% of the places for Christians.

51%. Thus, up to half of the school can be non-Christian.

Yeah....just reading over what I put, it would have been better for me to say: Being a Christian it virtually guarentees me a place.
|
Wrong again. It's non-Christians that are virtually guaranteed a place.
Lets say your school holds 100 people. 75 Christians want to go there but 49 Muslims and Jews want to go there too.
The school has to let all the Muslims and Jews go there and only 51/75 Christians get the chance.
......and no you don't get any official documentation for baptism/christenings. Maybe a few nice photos and a card from the priest.

If I got this right, it's not that only 51% of the students can be christian, but rather that 51% of the places are reserved for christians. So if there's some kind of selection for the places, everyone applys for that 495 that's not reserved but the christians can also run for those other 51%. At least that's how it works here on universities we're we have a reserve of places for poor and/or indian/black people.

There is almost no chance you've got that right.
Even if you did.... 71% of the country is Christian.
If there was less then 51% of christians in there they'd be MASSIVLY underrepresented.
