Apart from UK 'Faith Schools', Creationism takes up a very small part of the mainstream school curriculum anyway. It is certainly not part of GCSE and A-Level Science.

However, most schools offer Religious Studies at GCSE and A-Level which is a pretty 'easy' school subject to take... a lot of schools encourage students to do it as an extra but not exactly for their enrichment. Wink
