Seperation of schools is caused by the intrangience of the Catholic Schools to amalgamate with the state schools. State Schools are open to all but usually attended by Protestants. A limited non denominational schools programme has started but is poorly supported by local politicians and religious leaders as it challenges their political support base. This separates children at 5 years of age into Catholic and Protestants and sets this format throughout their education and is probably one of the biggest factors causing "trouble" in Northern Ireland
