Same reason as Jewish friends sent their daughters to a Catholic school, AOG ? They felt that the education was better. They were not alone in this.Of course,the school had to be aware of Jewish festivals and religious practices and it was.
And there are some Christian schools in Britain; schools that were founded as such; which have many more Muslims than Christians in their classrooms, a result of the change in the local population.

AOG - "Why would a Muslim wish to attend a Roman Catholic School anyway, sprouting a beard or not?"
Muslims very much favour a Catholic education if no faith school is available.
Muslim parents regard the Catholic ethos, with its accent on family values and becoming a valuable member of society, as very much in keeping with their own beliefs and wishes for their childrens' education.
the Cstholic inner-city school at which my wife was Deputy Head nad a majority of Muslim pupils for this very reason.
I know that doesn't fit with your stance that most Muslim children are budding jihadists - but you can't argue with the facts.

Were I a Sikh parent, I would send my son to a Christian, particularly a Catholic, school for the reasons given above. And I would expect the school to show common sense having admitted him, and allow a beard. I say 'if' they admitted him: I once got refused a place for our daughter at a Catholic school. The admissions secretary established that my wife was a Catholic but when she discovered I wasn't , she put the phone down !
Fred - probably too late now, but if your child is a baptised Catholic, and within the catchement area, then she would be given first refusal for a place.
The criteria is not based on the beliefs of both parents, as long as one is a practising Catholic, and the child is seen to attend Mass, then your faith should have no bearing on the issue.

AOG - "Question Author

/// A little unfair on ginger haired children...?! ///
Why is that sp can't see any mention of ginger hair?
Refer back to sp's post - "Children who turn up to school with red hair, inappropriate jewellery, false tan or make-up are isolated in a room until the matter is addressed and then they return to their normal day."
A little unfair on ginger haired children...?!"
The quote is there with the connecting words - 'red' and 'hair'.
Try to keep up AOG, funny it's only you who missed that.

AOG, I fear so ! It must have been that she realised that I was THE Fred Puli, which was good enough for any school to refuse me. Roedean needed the money, which is why the intake was Arab potentates' children and, unhappily my child too. I wouldn't have minded, but I could have bought, in the October Tattersall's sales, and kept in training, a decent sprinting, 2 y o filly for that sort of money. I did say that we could do that and send the child to the local comp in Pimlico instead, but Mrs Puli was against that. Never did understand women.

Oh how you waste time copying & pasting all that out, only to come up with a failed retaliated point
I did not fail to miss that as you so wrongfully put.
Ginger hair may be referred by some to be red hair, but it isn't in the true sense of the word, and we all know how you are a stickler for correctness.
If you are wordily enough to have seen the latest trend in hair colour, then you would not have failed to notice what colour red is, and it is this colour of hair that the school has banned, not ginger haired pupils.
Next please.

AOG, send a child to a Muslim school? Why would anyone do that when even many Muslims choose not to ? If the education on offer was better, they might. They'd have to wait and see whether they had any rules that would affect a Christian child; it would be natural to accept that she should wear a 'veil', but, beyond that, what?

As it was obviously a joke based on the commonly interchangeable terms red hair/ginger hair
If it's true what you say that you didn't 'miss that' then it was rather poor and humourless of you to quibble over it - and rather pointless unless it was just intended to add to your proclaimed 'smugness' at trolling other AB users

// TWO Muslim teenagers at a Roman Catholic school have been banned from lessons for refusing to shave off their beards.
The 14-year-olds have been in ‘isolation’ at Mount Carmel High School in Accrington for almost a month, the school confirmed. //
We are all making the mistake in assuming these are males.
Foreign asian women, in my experience are very prone to facial hair. Normally this wouldn't be a problem as they would hid it with a veil. But now that is banned in many schools, we are bound yo get more and more incidents such as this one.
