My son is going to a new school in September, and they have asked for
various personal data. Including Ethnic Origin. Does anyone have any
idea why this is required (particularly in the light of principles 2&3)?

Intake to the school appears to be entirely on the basis of catchment
area (so no quotas on specific religions or ethnic origin), and we
indisputably live within that catchment area.
