Christian pupils outnumbered by Muslims even in Roman Catholic schools
A survey has found 24 Catholic primary schools in the North West and the Midlands teach a minority of churchgoing children.
Fewer than one in 10 children are Catholic at one school in Birmingham, while the Church is ending its involvement with a similar establishment in Blackburn. Overall, Catholics make up 73.34 per cent of pupils at the 2,300 schools linked to the denomination across England and Wales.
But The Tablet, a weekly Catholic magazine, found that in Oldham, Blackburn, Wolverhampton and Birmingham there has been a sharp decline in the proportion of Catholics being educated in local faith schools.
At English Martyrs in Sparkhill, Birmingham, just 36 of the 410 pupils are Catholic while the vast majority are Muslim.
At Sacred Heart Primary in Salford, there are only seven Catholic pupils and moves are under way to remove it from the diocese’s jurisdiction.
Canon Anthony McBride said: “It seems that, for some reason, many Catholic parents in Sacred Heart parish have, over a number of years, ceased to support their school.”
An inspection by the diocese in 2007 said the situation was “seriously affecting the school’s ability to provide a traditional Catholic education”.
Most of the non-Catholic parents let their children attend assemblies although a church visit led to “friction”.
Last year the Catholic Education Service said Catholic schools should provide multi-faith prayer rooms for Muslim, Jewish, Hindu and Sikh students. ( from telegraph)
Traditional Catholic eduction is dying, and a lot of it is due to the Pope not bringing the Catholic Religion into the real world, and holding onto outdated values...

And by the large numbers of immigrants who have now made the UK their home but instead of integrating into the local community they bring their own customs and religion with them. Surely that is a major factor?

Re: Christian pupils outnumbered by Muslims even in Roman Catholic schools
There are many muslims born in the uk ,there religion and culture is there way of life its all they know ,there isnt many islamic school especially for high school students ,and it can be costly. muslims arent allowed contraception if they are practicing so theydo have large familys so private islamic school can be to expensive to send all the children to ,so they only send one of two if possible ,It seems religion is dying out in the english tradition where islam is rising in the muslim sector ,especially people reverting to the faith in drobes .

As its the muslims intent to wipe out the jews then the infidels(us) it comes as no surprise that muslim pupils outnumber the rest. They are being aided and abetted by the labour party with their multiculturist ideas.

Re: Christian pupils outnumbered by Muslims even in Roman Catholic schools
I studied Quran and hadith ,for every ayat/verse, in the Quran there is 2 to 3 books giving the explantion .the verse kill the infidels was at the time of mohammed when they were kicked out of mecca ,Quran references jews and christians as people of the book .
Unfortunetly muslims dont study islam and just take the ayat as it says ,mohammed said if you kill a person it is as if you have killed all man kind ,whats happening in islam today is sheikhs are turning up left right and centre with as little as a years study when it takes 25 years and misquoting the Quran.
