Faith schools, tolerance and diversity : exploring the influence of education on students' attitudes of tolerance

Everett, Helen, author, Janmaat, Jan Germen, editor, Vickers, Edward, 1971- editor, Everett, Henry, editor

Overview

\"Faith schools constitute approximately one third of all state-maintained schools and two fifths of the independent schools in England. Nevertheless, they have historically been, and remain, controversial. In the current social climate, questions have been raised about the ability of faith schools to promote Community Cohesion and, included within that, their ability to promote tolerance. This book explores one aspect of the debate by examining the effect that faith schools have on their students' attitudes of tolerance. As well as asking what differences exist between students in faith and non-faith schools, it also looks at which aspects of the schools might be affecting the students and their attitudes towards different minorities\"-- Provided by publisher.
