I am not at all in favour of this legal requirement for maintained schools.
The big question will be: 'Who is presenting religion to the children?' - The answer may upset a great many Christians.
Secondly, in larger schools the logistics are nigh on impossible.
What should happen is that an established Christian Church - thus excluding cults - takes an assembly once every half term.
Imposed assemblies actually alienate more children than they educate.
This means that as a rarity, their input may well be appreciated by pupils.
This should NOT be offered to other religions until schools in Pakistan, India, Saudi Arabia et multos freely offer Christian input to children in their countries.
The state has already diluted Christian education in our society to an immense degree. NO FURTHER!
