faith schools, public funding
Recent governments have promoted the setting-up of more faith schools. Here, Ben Clements explores attitudes towards the public funding of faith schools, examining the degree of support with reference to a variety of social factors. Overall, a majority of those questioned are against such public funding. However, some differences appear depending on, for example, the religious faith concerned, gender, and country within Great Britain. This article is of particular use to those taking the ‘Beliefs in society/Religion’ topic, and will enable a more analytical view when discussing public attitudes towards faith schools.
