Faith schools are urged to open doors to all religions

FAITH schools should stop selecting pupils on the basis of their religious background, new research said today.

A report by the Runnymede Trust said radical reform was needed to ensure such schools promote social cohesion.

The report added that faith schools should be "for the benefit of all in society rather than just some".

It went on to say: "If faith schools are convinced of their relevance for society, that should apply equally for all children."
