Show notes

It's been over seven years since the education act was written into law requiring all schools to publish an admission policy. The law was implemented to prevent discrimination in admission which includes removing religion as a selection criterion for most schools. However, there are growing concerns that some schools are still trying to seek such data from families before their child is enrolled. Pat heard from David Graham, Communications Officer at Education Equality.
