Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what her most recent estimate is of the number of pupils on roll in independent schools of a religious character of the (a) Anglican, (b) Roman Catholic, (c) other Christian, (d) Jewish, (e) Muslim, (f) Hindu, (g) Sikh and (h) other faiths in each local authority; and how many of each of those types of school there are.

The department publishes statistics on pupils and schools in England, which is available here: https://explore-education-statistics.service.gov.uk/find-statistics/school-pupils-and-their-characteristics.

The number of independent schools and pupils registered at them as at January 2024, by religious character and local authority, is available here: https://explore-education-statistics.service.gov.uk/data-tables/permalink/3d6557c3-5279-4652-b88d-08dcab23db45. ‘No data’ indicates that the local authority has no independent schools associated with that faith.
