Supreme Court judgment on religious education in Northern Ireland

Tabled 19 November 2025 by Jim Allister

That this House notes with deep concern the Supreme Court’s ruling against the historic Christian ethos of the controlled school sector in Northern Ireland; expresses concern at the judgment’s use of the term indoctrination in relation to long-standing Christian teaching; and calls on the Government and the Northern Ireland Education Minister to set out urgent measures to uphold the Christian ethos in Northern Ireland schools.
