Here is a link to the research I was talking about. I don't think it's been repeated since.
I was very surprised at how relatively unimportant sectarianism was compared to overall levels of violence in Glasgow.
The Violence Reduction Unit suggest that territorialism is a far more significant factor.

Ridiculously cheap drink has to be another major contributor to violence, the police were happy to support minimum pricing so why don't they lobby for an end to tax payer funded brain washing and let kids grow up together questioning their parents and societies inbuilt divisions.

You're 100% right about segregated schools, I don't know what can be done about it, it's enshrined in law as far as I know.
