Rejected petition Ammend Faith schools admissions policy so that faith schools cannot disciminate against children of different faiths.

More details

Faith schools' admissions policy should be amended so that the cannot disciminate against children of different faiths.

School admissions policies that discriminate on religion amount to a religious apartheid. Non believers are encouraged to go to church to get their kids in to the best state schools - which is a milder version of the crusades.

Non Believers should at least be offered a tax rebate as right now they pay for schools that will not accept their children.

Hindus and Muslims can set up their own schools of course, but does this country really want to encourage such religious segregation, especially at such a young age?
