        Survived Catholic school. Now an atheist as are many of my old schoolmates (ironic as the school motto was, "Semper Fideles"). Wonderful article as always. Keep up the good fight.

        In total agreement. Thought we got rid of grammar schools in the 1970's but oh no this government wants to take us back to the 'good old days'.

        Although grammar school educated myself, there’s much cause for concern that the continual rise of grammar and faith schools causes more divisions and a fractured society. Which is ironic as the general buzzword nowadays is to be “inclusive”, yet govt policies drive fragmentation

        I’m a humanist and I couldn’t agree more, Shappi, especially about the govt giving our money to grammar schools!

        Oh absolutely. This with bells on. See also Church of England schools, which didn’t exist where I grew up but seem to be held in the strangest, greatest esteem in our shared local manor.

        So many people have some thing to say here but will remain silent out of fear. Fear of being bashed for having a belief. Having faith.

        Probably going to get middle class parents pretending to be working class parents just to get their kids into the grammar spots for the ‘disadvantaged’ children now. Madness !

        High Priestess of Secularism, this is bloody brilliant! I was one of those teachers struggling to do their best with classes of wildly different needs. I left the profession, utterly dejected, a few years ago. Couldn't agree with your thoughts here more - thanks for posting x
