I attended Catholic schools for 12 years, and later taught public school, so I have a "both sides" viewpoint on this question. Catholic schools are more difficult than public schools largely because the expectations for the students are higher than they are in most public schools. On a grade-for-grade basis, the curriculum in Catholic schools is also more demanding, or perhaps more accurately, "farther along" for a given grade level. In both grade school and high school I had friends who left and went to public school, and later told me they were anywhere from a half a year to a full year ahead of the other kids in their grade in the public school. There are many variables, of course - some Catholic schools are better than others, and the best public schools I taught in were the equal of any Catholic school - those were public schools where the school and the parents had very high expectations for the students.
The difficulty level of a school is not solely determined by whether it is Catholic or public. Different schools, whether Catholic or public, can have varying levels of academic rigor and resources. It ultimately depends on the specific school's curriculum, faculty quality, and resources, rather than just the type of school.

'Normal' Schools are that of which are usually publicly funded and teach the pupils by the National Curriculum, this of course includes aspects of Religious Studies. A wide range of students attend (depending in catchment area) which could potentially include many pupils from a variety of faiths. A Faith School is the same as other schools with the National Curriculum, however, they have a stronger religious ethos and emphasize on the morals and values and individual should have. They also incorporate religious activities into their daily routine, i.e Muslim Faith School make time for Prayer (Salaah), or Catholic Schools with singing Hymns and reading from the Bible during Assemblies.

In many educational settings, evolution is taught as a scientific theory supported by evidence, while creationism is often excluded due to its religious nature. Some areas in the United States have faced debates about the inclusion of creationism in science curricula, but courts have consistently ruled against its mandatory inclusion in public school science classes.
Generally, yes. People try to get their children into such schools, despite the religious indoctrination, just for that purpose. In Great Britain it is quite a problem with many parents pretending to be Catholic, or going through the motions to get their children better educations.

Public schools are funded by a mixture of funding from federal, state and municipal sources. Bonds, tax levies and interest from investments help supplement funds from the governement.
