The below Parliamentary question was asked by Sir Edward Leigh on 2014-03-18.

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what plans he has to reform faith-based admissions to free schools.

Faith designated free schools can use faith as a criterion for admitting up to 50% of their pupils, when oversubscribed. I have no plans to change this rule.
