Church of England and Roman Catholic schools (Section 6, maps 46–50)

When the contributions of the two churches, Church of England and Roman Catholic, are combined, the highest percentage of church primary schools (66%) is found in Wigan and Westminster. Behind them come Oxfordshire (59%), Lancashire (56%), and Knowsley, Sefton, Wiltshire and Kensington and Chelsea (55%). In terms of pupils in the schools, Westminster (62%) and Wigan (60%) still occupy the top places but the shire counties of Oxfordshire and Lancashire, on account of the number of small church schools, drop down to 46%, with St Helens, Knowsley, Sefton and Kensington and Chelsea ahead of them along with Somerset.
