Students in Anglican and Roman Catholic schools bested their public-school counterparts on this year's national English, math and science exams, new figures from the British Department of Education show. The data, known as "primary league tables," reveal the percentage of 11-year-olds in each school who achieve proficiency on the tests, as well as allow parents to compare schools' performance from year to year. "Church schools show the way to high standards for 11-year-olds," Daily Telegraph, December 5, 2002
