Racial segregation in schools

Today’s Observer newspaper reports that the UK’s schools are diving along racial lines.  A Department for Education and Skills report apparently shows that a majority of pupils in many areas of the country, outside of London and particularly in the North, have little contact with children from different ethnic backgrounds despite their often close proximity.  The capital stands alone in having ethnically balanced intakes.  The DfES does not appear to have made the report available for public consumption on its website; when it does, a link will be provided on this site.
