Does anyone believe that England cares about an actual “Church” of “England”?

A judge in the United Kingdom is actually prohibiting a father from bringing his own child to church:

“A British father has been banned from taking his son to a church after the boy’s Muslim mother won a controversial court order preventing the boy from attending. “The father – a non-practising Muslim who has forged close connections to his local Christian community and is divorced from the boy’s mother – has been warned that he could be denied access to the nine-year-old if he attempts to take him to church or to a leisure centre it runs. “… “The father, who cannot be named for legal reasons, said his ex-wife insisted their son, whom she is bringing up in the Muslim faith, could ‘become confused’ if he is subjected to other religions. “‘My son is being indoctrinated and the only way I can show him other things is to take him to other places,’ said the father. “‘If I don’t show him other types of life he will become just like a dumb sheep. I want him to see and learn about different cultures. “‘This is nothing short of brain-washing him. Already he is telling me that I have a black heart, that I am a bad man, because I am not a practising Muslim. I am heartbroken that I have to keep him away from activities with local children.”

Is the mother prohibited from taking the child to a mosque?

Heck, are non-Muslim parents allowed to NOT have their children go to a mosque!

“Parents choosing to withdraw their children from a school trip to a mosque over fears they would witness ‘guns and violence’ have been told by governors that any absences will not be approved, amid concerns over damage to community relations. “… “The visit to the mosque will provide an insight for pupils into the nature of British Islam, help them understand how Islam is presented in the media and that groups like Isis are not a true reflection of the Islam followed by the vast majority of Muslims in Britain..”

Parents who refuse to toe the line will be publicly shamed.

“[A] parent said she was furious after the pupils who pulled out of the trip were singled out in a school assembly. “She said: ‘They were made to stand up after assembly. The sitting non-attendees were then asked individually why they were not going on the trip. “‘This is not a decision the children have made, so discriminating against these children in this fashion is disgraceful, unacceptable and unprofessional.'”

England, which allegedly has an established state church, is now seeing students forcibly indoctrinated into Islam.

“They heard how the mosque can accommodate 2,500 people and that many of the Muslim children attend a special school at the mosque from 5pm to 7pm to learn how to read the Qu’ran. “The children were shown how Muslims pray and were allowed to join in themselves if they wanted to.”

The question is not “Does England have an established Christian church”, but rather does England support Sunni or Shia?
