Maybe because the shoulders are out??? Idk but I honestly doubt it was something as simple as ‘we can’t celebrate being British’

Even though I know it happens, I’m still sus about this story

Yeah I'm always reluctant to comment on these stories as they feel race baity and I wonder if there is more to it than what's been said here. Obviously if it is just because they don't want someone celebrating being British and nothing else then it's totally wrong

I did think initially I wonder if there was something in the essay, or some form of celebration of being British that is the problem - for instance it's fine to celebrate British culture but celebrating some of Britains history would not be a great look - however the school has come out and apologised and accepted what they did was wrong so I am assuming it was just a big error in judgement.

4 days in the news cycle and all we have had is a grovelling apology from the school

Id imagine if there was it would be in the public domain now?
