DR JOHN SENTAMU: Critics are making a ferocious attack on Church schools … I have to speak out
Subject

Description
Church schools are among the most popular in the country with parents. Yet some politicians and a number of influential commentators take a very different line, mounting an attack of unusual and sustained ferocity. Some want to dictate who and what these schools are allowed to teach. Others wish to abolish ‘faith schools’, as they have become known, altogether. These critical, sometimes angry, views are so widely broadcast that they are now familiar – claims that Church schools create religious ‘ghettos’, for example, that they cause divisions in society or that they ‘indoctrinate’ young minds.
