Our daughter is due to start Primary School later this year. Our preferred school and incidentally the nearest to where we leave is a C of E school.

Neither myself no my wife are religious in any way, although my wife was brought up Catholic. Our daughter was never Christened.

Just wondering what the deal with prospective admission into said school. Will we have to comply and get our daughter baptised/christened etc ? Do we have to turn up to Church for a few weeks - to show willing ? Or will the school just accept us.

thanks

Cheers, just sometimes you hear stories whereby you have to jump through loads of hoops !

You won't have a problem unless you are an orthodox Jew or a member of the Taliban when they might just raise an eyebrow

Anyway it might do your daughter a bit of good to have a C o E outlook on life even though she might want to change her mind when she is a stroppy teenager.

If you are in the area for a particular school then your religious affairs should have nothing to do with whether your child is eligible.

You won't have a problem getting her into a C of E school, I don't know of any schools in my area that are non religious, and C of E schools are generally more open to members of other religions than the schools that are associated with the other religions
