And despite years of compulsory daily worship at primary school, I
don't know what Christians _believe_
That's a bit hard on yourself. What they believe in is living a virtuous
life as laid out in the gospels.

That's obviously not true, because they also believe a bunch of stuff
not in the gospels. And what that stuff is varies from sect to sect,
such as:
* whether priests are necessary;
* if they are, whether women can be priests;
* if they can, whether they are as priestly as men;
* whether gay people should have human rights;
* whether evolution happened

Few of those issues will emerge as important to a student's education at
a faith school in the UK.

As in the evil gays and palaeontologists are kept well away, or as in
the system isn't yet that bad?

Such matters simply don't affect the life of the school.
