HC Deb 24 January 1995 vol 253 c167W
Mr. Harry Greenway

To ask the Secretary of State for Education if she will make a statement on the future of religious education and the daily act of worship in schools.

Mr. Forth

The Government have no plans to change the law requiring religious education and daily collective worship to be provided for all registered pupils at maintained schools. These activities make an important contribution to pupils' moral and spiritual development.
