"The UK makes teaching religion mandatory in public schools"

The UK does no such thing - education is handled completely separately by the different parts of the UK.

There certainly weren't "daily acts of collective worship" when I was at school in Scotland 40+ years ago and there aren't now when my kids went to school.

Also went to school in Scotland. We'd sing a hymn at morning assembly. I wonder if this was done to satisfy the requirement.
