Basically at secondary you get 2 periods of R.E. a week (which covers all faiths) and there's services for the major events in that faith's calendar.
At primary school you do things like your first communion and confirmation through the school (if you're at a catholic one) but this isn't compulsory at all and is completely up to the parents/child.
That's how it worked at mine anyway.
Oh and if you're at a Catholic one you'll need to find out about condoms somewhere else.
And you get sexually abused by priests... (this is a joke)

haha loved the last bit!
I went to a protestant school, and got taught fuck all about my own religion, spent most of the time being told how to be tolerant of other faiths.
Physics, Biology and all that were explained with proper science.
I remember being taught evolution in biology, and then discussing creationism in RE in the same day. Very confusing.
