All Church of England schools (Section 2, maps 6–10)

The schools are concentrated in a band of LEAs in the west of England from Shropshire down to Dorset, stretching as far east as Oxfordshire. The northern LEAs of North Yorkshire, Cumbria and Lancashire have high proportions of CE primary schools, as do the eastern LEAs of Lincolnshire, Norfolk and Suffolk, the Midland LEAs of Leicestershire, Northamptonshire and Warwickshire, and in the south-east the rural counties of Kent, East and West Sussex and the Isle of Wight.

Tyne and Wear, Cleveland, South Yorkshire and London all have low proportions of CE primary schools – with the exception of Inner London where many of the statistics are skewed by there being few schools in total in the LEAs. Cornwall in the south-west also stands out as having relatively few CE schools along with the northern home counties, the West Midlands, Nottinghamshire, Durham and parts of Merseyside.
