“An Absolute Melting Pot That Area, A Complete Recipe For Disaster“ Isabel Oakeshott On Prayer Ban

A school led by ‘Britain’s strictest teacher’ Katharine Birbalsingh is being challenged in the High Court over a policy allegedly amounting to a “prayer ban“. Michaela School in Brent, north London, introduced a policy in March 2023 “banning prayer rituals“ and a Muslim student at the school told the High Court on Tuesday the policy is discriminatory. The court also heard that the school has faced an online campaign over its approach to religion, as well as threats of violence, abuse and false allegations of Islamophobia. The Talk Panel discuss the controversy surrounding the “prayer ban“ and how religion should fit into the British school system. #headteacher #prayerban #court #london Click here for more from TalkTV If you need any help visit:
