| | denomination / philosophical or religious orientation | Explanation:
denomination or
(philosophical or religious) orientation
Denomination seems to refer primarily to religious aspects.
Under the denominational system of education, schools were designated as:
- Integrated (Anglican, Presbyterian, Salvation Army or United Church)
- Pentecostal
- Roman Catholic or
- Seventh-day Adventist

Single denomination schools for Chritians and Jewish students are fine to be funded by the state - but now we are told we should not fund Muslim single denomination schools (which only just started to be recognized and a very few started to be state funded).
Muslims are told everyone must integrate. Well how could a Muslim integrate if they are immediately excluded if they apply to a Christian or Jewish schools (ignoring the very few places "left aside" for other religions). Effectively, most Muslims are forced to go to comprehensives -- this is the modern apartheid in the UK : Most good schools are either Christian or Jewish denominated - and the Muslims are mostly excluded from these.
