campaigns against faith schools

Campaigns against faith schools are efforts to address concerns that these schools may promote religious discrimination, limit social integration, or challenge ideas of equal treatment in education. Critics argue that faith-based curricula can reinforce divisiveness and restrict students' exposure to diverse perspectives. Conversely, supporters contend they provide valuable religious and cultural identity. These campaigns aim to ensure transparency, promote inclusive education, and balance religious freedoms with social cohesion. The debate revolves around how best to uphold individual rights while fostering a cohesive, equitable society through educational policies.
