Catholic school representatives in the United Kingdom have rejected the conclusions of a report which claims that Catholic primary schools serve fewer students with disabilities or special needs than public schools.
Dr Tammy Campbell of the London School of Economics said in a report faith schools from the Catholic and Anglican Churches in England gave a “relative advantage” for more affluent families whose children do not have special needs.
Over 25 per cent of English children attend Church of England or Catholic schools, both of which are funded by the state.
