Try and bring up Sectarian schooling in Scotland or Northern Ireland, and you'll be branded a bigot
It is no go area , the Catholic church is allowed to keep it's kids segregated and All of us pay extra for the privilege
One organisation is allowed to discriminate against other religions and thats the RC school system, where non catholic teachers (if they can get a job there at all) can be blocked for advancement, because of their religion by the Church authorities.
It's not just the Kids who are segregated, check this story about a new school, where even though they share resources, the catholic kids are kept away from the non-denominational pupils. AT ALL TIMES, including separate playgrounds
BUT this wasn't enough for Archbishop Philip Tartaglia, he demanded secret meetings with Dunbartonshire Council, where he threatened to scupper the whole project unless ===
Teachers in the town are dismayed that His Grace has ducked out of the controversy over the siting of the new Our Lady and St Patrick’s High School in Bellsmyre.
They are particularly angry, too, over decisions taken at secret meetings between the archdiocese and West Dunbartonshire Council.
These were in relation to the single campus primary school which is also about to be built in Bellsmyre to replace St Peter’s and Aitkenbar.
Teachers and parents are furious that the archdiocese has insisted that the staff be kept apart and that two separate staff rooms – one for Catholics and one for non-Catholics – must be part of the new complex.
Their dismay is shared with the parents of Aitkenbar, who have expressed their unhappiness publicly at the fact that the children will go into the new school through separate entrances.
There will be one entrance for Catholic pupils and one for Protestants and children of other denominations and none.
