We all know the road that single faith schools take us down,the writing is all ready on the walls in Northern Ireland and Scotland.
Has the time now come to rid us all of every single single faith school in the UK?

Should parents really have the right to choose a religious faith for their own children for life?

Hello Norm,sadly the stats don't back you up here,only about 800,000 people regularary now attend the churches here.
Many people only choose faith schools because that seems to be the nearest or only choice they are given.

Very sad Rik. Yet our 3 churches (CoE, RC and Methodist) in Woburn Sands, on the edge of Milton Keynes are packed to the gunnels every Sunday and all are quite active during the weekdays on other ventures.
