Likes cars that go boom

That seems a heavy handed if true, why is the mail the only news source used on the forum now?

Typical anti-Islamic Daily Mail article that's taken one small issue and blown it out of proportion in an attempt to slander Muslims tbh
But still, it's a ridiculous idea but this annoyed me ‘We are a mainly Christian school, but we have to cover at least one other religion as part of the National Curriculum. This visit is part of that.' ...um, because you have to? How about because you should be because that's what receiving a balanced, healthy and open minded education is all about. Either teach children about all religious beliefs on an equal level, or teach them none at all. This veiled indoctrination of kids is so disgusting. |

So basically it's a failing school that tried an underhanded method to fund a school trip.

I think it is perfecting reasonable for a school in Britain to maintain traditional religions such as COE or Catholic as it's main religion - just as I would expect a school in Iran to do the same, and of course they would. |

This headmistress is seriously inept... even labelling Islam as a religion, shouldn't teachers have some form of RE before spouting incorrect labels?! It really is no shock that the school is in problems with ofsted... and children should never be unjustly told they're racists for any reason, so much is wrong with this story.

Maybe a lot of parents don't want their children having anything to do with Islam . Maybe a lot of parents view Islam with disdain and do not want their children involved with it on any level.
Maybe they view it as a nasty dirty,evil terrorist making medieval outdated religious extremist sect... Or Maybe not.......???? But that's not the point is it ? They should have the choice to decide without their children being labelled as racists even if the parents are.

First of all I think it's very important that school kids learn about all religions, but labelling those that didn't want to go in this trip racist is a bit much.

This is ridiculous. Especially given that the parents have to pay for the trip too.
Give us your money or your child will be forever thought of as racist

They should know there are religions out there and the basic principles including respecting people's opinions but that's it as far as I'm concerned. |
