Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, pursuant to the Answer of 2 February 2018 to Question 125493 on Faith Schools, what assessment he has made of whether allowing faith schools greater freedom to discriminate on the grounds of faith conflicts on the Government's proposals to strengthening equalities legislation.
Faith designated schools are allowed to admit children on the basis of their faith as part of their oversubscription criteria. The ability to do this is ā€ˇpermitted by the Equality Act.
