Faith Schools and Tolerance: a Comparative Study of the Influence of Faith Schools on Students' Attitudes of Tolerance
Faith Schools and Tolerance: a comparative study of the influence of faith schools on students' attitudes of tolerance. Helen Sarah Everett A thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Institute of Education; University of London Supervisors; Dr Edward Vickers and Dr Germ Janmaat. Funded by an ESRC 1+3 studentship 1 Declaration I hereby declare that, except where explicit attribution is made, the work presented in this thesis is entirely my own. Word count (exclusive of appendices, list of references and bibliography): 97,743 words Helen Everett March 2012 2 Abstract Faith Schoolsand Tolerance: a comparative study of the influence of faith schoolson students' attitudes of tolerance. Faith schools constitute approximately one third of all state-maintained schools and two fifths ofthe independent schools in England. Nevertheless they have historically been, and remain, controversial. In the current social climate questions have been raised about the ability of faith schools to promote Community Cohesion and, included within that, their ability to promote tolerance. This research explores one aspect of this debate by looking at the effect that faith schools have on their students' attitudes of tolerance. As well as asking what differences exist between students in faith and non-faith schools it also looks at which aspects of the schools might be impacting on the students and affecting their attitudes of tolerance. Using a mixed methods approach, this research looks at six English secondary schools, including a range of faith as well as non-faith schools, and from both state and independent sectors. The complexity and multiple meanings associated with the term tolerance are explored, incorporating different understandings and objects oftolerance.
