Maybe in the schools you know of it doesn't. I know others that do.

Presume not as I can't remember
I got an E in English not my strong point at all thick as whale spunk when it comes to that shite, same with math....how I ever managed to get a HND in Visual C++ ill never know
its bollocks
Thinking that teachers should be robots who are fair game to drive to tears gets in the way of effective teaching of any subject. Its appallling behaviour. Imagine being expected to give 6 hours of public presentations a day then have 10 people out of the 30 in the audience heckling you all day every day. Then you are judged on the results of those hecklers and are potentially put on disciplinary if they do not do well enough despite it being their own fault. And people wonder why there is a massive recruitment and retention issue in teaching and why 50% of all those who qualify to teach leave the profession in under 5 years with most of them gone within 2.
Nope, part of becoming a more diverse society and all the better for it.
Get a home brew kit and it's easy to turn water into wine. Done it many times.Some good tips in the bible man, water into wine, been working on it for years. Haven't cracked it yet like.
I'm going to ask a stupid question here...
What's the point in having a Catholic School that accepts non-catholics and doesn't promote the Catholic Faith as being the only way? Isn't that just like any other school? What makes the School specifically and identifiably Catholic if it isn't it's admissions policy and take on religion?
Judging by this thread your parents must have felt the same way about English and geography.at school.
I don't want either of mine partaking in that shite, I know they don't have assembly anymore where you have to sing Hymns and say the Lords prayer (fucksake).

Collective worship in schools - Wikipedia
"Section 70 of the School Standards and Framework Act 1998 stipulates that pupils of community, foundation or voluntary schools in England and Wales must take part in a daily act of Collective Worship"
"For schools without a formal faith designation, the majority of the acts of worship should be "of a broadly Christian character""
How about cannalism?
Wrong.R.E is fine in non religious schools. However, if your child goes to a Christian school they will be taught the bible as fact, have to say prayers etc. But if you had your child Christened then that's what you signed up for.
The act of worship and RE Lessons are totally different things.I think the op is confusing RE with bible studies or something
Those poor kids who had to do the walk of shame thoughAnd you have freedom to withdraw from it.

Exactly mate.Fuck. That. Shit.
Either:
1 - Religious Schools are wrong because they concentrate too much on religion, and don't give kids a decent chance of a proper eduction
OR
2- Religious Schools actually push the religious aspect so little, that there's absolutely no point in the entire concept of religious schools
Pick one

Selective schools do tend to be higher performing. Many reasons for that.As for Point 1 - It always seemed that Catholic Schools in our area had a good reputation for educational standards and discipline. They always seem to be well funded and have good facilities too. Not sure if that's a misconception or if things have changed over the years.

One of them is arguably reasonable. One totally isn't.

Even if its roundly-ignored, it being set in law is yet another way religion encroaches into culture, and is normalised into daily life.[/QUOTE]
Same as having a group of about 20 Christian Bishops eligible to sit in the House of Lords but none from other religions, its an absolute disgrace.
Bored the tits off me at the time like but it's funny how how the same people who complain about it tend to have developed very strong feelings about religion and learn about it themselves, then try to stop others learning about it. Interesting.
It’s essential that people have knowledge of something before they dismiss it out of hand. It’s not as if RE is forcing kids to believe in God/Allah/Jah, it’s just teaching them about what millions of people believe and the reasoning behind it.
