Alwaleed Centre, University of Edinburgh ‘While Muslims form 1.45% of the total Scottish population, the proportion of school-age children (aged 5-14) who are Muslim is notably higher, at 2.4%. The number of Muslim teenagers in 2021 (those currently in the 5-9 age band) is projected to be 9.4% of the overall Muslim population. For some areas of Glasgow and Dundee, wards with the most concentrated Muslim populations (constituting over 5% of the total), the percentage of Muslims among children of school age is very high. For instance, in the Pollokshields ward, where Muslims make up 28% of the overall population, the proportion of 5-15 year olds who are Muslim is 48%.’ Age Profile of Muslim Population in Scotland Age group All Muslims Muslims as % of all Muslims as % of overall Muslim population in age group population 0 to 4 292,821 8,283 2.8% 10.8 5 to 14 561,232 13,191 2.4% 17.2 15 to 24 694,766 13,003 1.9% 16.9 25 to 64 2,856,250 39,733 1.4% 51.8 65 + 890,334 2,527 0.3% 3.3 Total 5,295,403 76,737 1.4% 100 Muslims in 0 to 4 and 5 to 9 year Old Age Bands, 2011 Muslims as % of overall Muslim Age All people Muslim Population Total 5,295,403 76,737 0 to 4 292,821 8,283 10.8 5 to 9 269,617 7,249 9.4 6 Young Muslim Population in Dundee wards with >5% Muslim population All Ages Age 0-4 Age 5-15 Electoral Ward % Muslims All Muslims % Muslims All Muslims % Muslims Maryfield 5.5 674 97 14.4 1,224 121 9.9 West End 5 676 97 14.3 1,292 147 11.4 Total number of Christians at 2011 census + percentage (2001 census figure in brackets) All people Total in 2011 Church of Scotland % Roman Catholic % Other Christian % Scotland 5,295,403 2,848,927 32.4 (42.4) 15.9 (15.8) 5.5 (6.81) Dundee city 147,268 71,720 25.3 18.3 5.1 Estimate of total number of active Christians e.g. attending churches Scottish Church Census: Population and Sunday Church Attendance by Council, 1984-2025E Population Church Attendance Attendance as % of Population 1984 1994 2002 2016 2025 1984 1994 2002 2016 2025 1984 1994 2002 2016 2025 Dundee City 140,860 145,250 144,410 148,510 152,810 20,620 17,750 14,030 9,470 7,150 14.6 12.2 9.7 6.4 4.7 .
