How about no faith schools at all?

One can dream...


sadly, the current goverment wants to create more of them in the UK.

they should be banned.

Completely agree.


Why? Faith schools are some of the best schools in the country. They are fortunate in the fact that they receive extra funding, they produce the highest results, and tend to have the best records on things such as punctuality. How can some people claim that education is one of the most important things to a continued, prosperous society (which I agree with, and, so does every other sane person) on one hand, whilst on the other want to shut down some of the best institutions for providing education in the country. Based on what? Opposition to religion?

I don't liek religion at all, but I agree with Samuel. I was Christened with the sole purpose of going to a Chruch of England school. It is the best performing school in the area and I hear this is common of "religious" schools compared to those that are "non relgious"
