Rejected petition Equality of Religious Teaching in Schools

More details

Presently, Christianity is taught in schools (especially Primary Schools) as the main religious view.

I request that all main religious viewpoints (including: Christianity (and dinominations), Buddhism, Hinduism, Judaism, Islam, Sikh, Atheism, Quakers, Neopaganism, ect) are encorporated equally into the National Curriculum for both Primary and Secondary Education to aid the pupil's spiritual awareness and the teaching of morals such as the acceptance of others.

Equality is the key, to teach each area fairly to give children a wide, extensive knowledge of how others live and the choices they have.
