As well as opposing armed services recruitment visits to schools (see Peter Whittle's post), the NUT conference also adopted a policy document opposing all new faith schools. They allege that faith schools as a group hinder community cohesion.
But, If Anglican and Catholic faith schools really hinder community cohesion, why do so many Muslim and Hindu parents send their children to them in preference to the normal comprehensives the NUT want all children to be forced to attend...?
