Faith Schools: Admissions
- Question
-
To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Agnew of Oulton on 20 December 2017 (HL3949), what evidence they have, if any, of why some Muslim parents send their children to Catholic, or other faith, schools.
- Answer
-
The department does not collect data about the preferences of parents from particular faiths in relation to the choice of school for their children. Catholic schools are often popular with parents and over-subscribed and it is likely that this may result in interest from Muslim parents as well as those from other faiths and no faith.
