Faith Schools: Admissions
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, whether she plans to remove the 50% faith cap on newly opened schools.
Answered by Catherine McKinnell
The previous government launched a consultation proposing to lift the 50% faith admissions cap that applies to free schools designated with a religious character, where they are oversubscribed. The consultation closed last year and the department will respond in due course.
