Denominational education
Denominational schools are run in the same way as other education authority schools. The majority of denominational state schools in Scotland are Roman Catholic.
You can find out more about denominational schools in your area by contacting your education authority. There are also independent schools which offer denominational education.
Religious subjects and religious observance
Every state school is open to pupils of all denominations. As a parent, you can withdraw your children from instruction in religious subjects and from religious observance.
