Creationism teaching

Since the Roman Catholic church "supports" evolution as a science (see Evolution and the Roman Catholic Church), are there any catholic schools anywhere (US or UK) that teach creationism? j-beda 18:15, 10 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

fights at shared campus schools

The article says:

many shared campuses have suffered large scale fights or other disruptions on opening

I don't think this is true. The first one in Dalkeith did suffer some playground fights, but these were not attributed to religious tensions. I'm not aware of any other fights or disruptions at any other shared campus schools.

'Catholic child' vs 'child of Catholic parents'

The original wording of 'a Catholic child...' is correct. Although the statement that 'no child is born Catholic' is of course correct, we are talking here about admission to Catholic schools. For such admissions, there has to be evidence that the child is actually being raised as a Catholic (e.g. that he or she was baptised in a Catholic church). The 'child of Catholic parents' definition includes some children who would not get priority, and excludes some children who would:

A child whose parents are different religions - i.e. one Catholic, one Protestant Christian/Muslim/Whatever - but who is being raised as a Catholic, would get admission priority even though he does not have two Catholic parents
A child whose parents are both Catholics, but who (for moral grounds etc.) have decided not to raise the child in any religion (e.g. preferring to allow him/her to choose any religion or none when old enough to make an independent choice) would not get priority even though both of his parents are Catholic

I hope these two situations help explain why it is the religion of the child that is most important in this situation, not the religion of the parents. Cynical 21:20, 4 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Catholic Sixth Form College

There's about twenty Catholic sixth form colleges (i.e. about 20% of the sector)- Should this be mentioned here or elsewhere? Zagubov (talk) 15:08, 21 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

improving the article

It seems to me taht this article gives undue weight to untypical schools and policies. The number of politicians pushing for catholic schools to be closed is entirely marginal, for example, and the legal case brought againts shared camouses is similarly a marginal case. A clearer general pictire needs to be drawn. imhoJohncmullen1960 (talk) 07:23, 12 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
