catholic schools are different to private schools...damn...shuda put religious schools

well anyway, in a catholic school, they force you to do either religious studies or studies of religion..

but again i meant private as in needing cash to be admitted in. whereas a catholic school, is privately owned anyway. it's a well-known fact...yeh... :cool:
I go to a Lutheran Private School... which I ticked as a private school on your poll.. but at our school we also have to do religious studies.. its a requirement of the school board.... so its not just catholic schools who have that rule... but also at my school you have to pay lots of money to be admitted... so yeah.. I mean if thats what you mean as the difference between catholic and private... then they can be easily in both....
Also as all catholic schools are classed a private schools... wouldn't they be privately owned anyway?

With Religious Schools, it's not like you have to be religious anyway. Although I did hear that you have to be baptised or whatever it is. Sorry, I'm not very religiously-literate.

And yes, it does seem that each year becomes smarter and smarter. Which leads to year 7s thinking that they're so amazingly brilliant and that they can mouth off to whomever they wish.

Sorry, I recognise this rant is somewhat in vain :uhhuh:
Most "religious" schools allow anybody to attend there .... its just that usually preferance is given to people of that particular denomination or religion. Usually if you parents say that they are the particular religion thats enough for the school to give them preference.. the baptising or confirmation or anything else doesn't usually even come into play. The only reason why preferance is given to families who follow a particular religon is because they would rather the school keep its religious tendencies and good reputation, than become like a private public school.

i am just wondering. how many of you are selective government, non-selective government, private or catholic, or one that is not listed. this could determine the number of smart people that come to Bored Of Studies :p
Sorry :(

I'm one of the "stupid" ones

the religious school near me makes people of different religions to take a test and have an interview and all this crap just to get in. But the people of the religion are straight in, regardless of their reputation at different schools (like if they got expelled or something)

i can see the point of it.. but i have this tiny feeling that its kinda wrong...
