Regina v Governors of Bishop Challoner Roman Catholic School and Another, Ex Parte C: CA 8 Jan 1992

A school with a religious status has no special duty to treat applicants from all religious denominations in the same manner in its admissions policy. Since it was oversubscribed, it had no statutory duty to give priority to the preference of applicants. The section is to be construed literally.
