Do students practice religion at the school? What religion?
The school respects all religions and give any group to practice their beliefs, e.g . when Muslims or Christians request for a room to pray - they are given. If they want to join their affiliate groups out of school compound - such an activity can be organized so long as it does not interfere with the normal learning program.

We don't have a school organized religious program - since we are not aligned to any. All our students are comfortable since we respect their faith.
