Next to cleanliness

Abstract

From the nine Quaker boarding schools to the 900 000 children in over 6700 aided or controlled Church of England schools, the religious bodies continue to play a large part in the provision of education at both primary and secondary level in the State system. Additionally, they control a significant number of the direct grant and independent schools as well as many colleges of education. With the exception of the 50 Jewish day schools, which take in over 11 000 Jewish children, religious education means Christian education.
