No Outsiders programme restarts at Birmingham school.

Sanity has been restored.

Did they get an injunction to keep the mob down to a more respectable size or distance away from the school?
Surely it will be quite easy for the next governors election to take control?

The school is part of an Academy chain. The election of parent governors hostile to the school management isn't going to have a significant impact.

I suspect that in the medium term, the school is unsaveable. Once there is a serious breakdown in relationships, there will need to be a relaunch of a new school in the buildings within a year or two. The problem is, what parent will choose the school and any children sent there because of over-subscription elsewhere will be looking to move out.

The problem seems to be this deputy head who devised the programme. This is the second school that has erupted around him. School managements up and down the country are delivering equalities programmes in many varieties of schools with pupils from many backgrounds and don't have a baying mob at the gates. Once there is a baying mob at the gates, the educational powers that be have to back him and be seen to back him. That is inevitable. Furthermore, what he is delivering is both the law and government policy. But some people are naturally confrontational and some people think that it is more important to deliver a purist message to an empty classroom than to deliver a watered down message that the children will actually hear. Of course there is also prioritisation. I suspect it isn't really important to him what these Muslim Asian kids' relationships are with the local Hindu or West Indian or Wast European communities provided that they embrace his agenda about sexual orientation.

Why exactly is this 'sanity restored'?

Well now it's " no outsiders for a faith community",which means what exactly? I suspect it's been watered down which is quite annoying

Because it is "insane" to withdraw lessons for children on tolerance because of the intolerance of parents. You may have a different word for it but it amounts to the same. How about "reason restored"? You choose.

I think you will find it's not the teacher who has an "agenda".

That wasn't a jab I genuinely wanted clarification on what you meant. Either way the parents demands were hardly unreasonable. Questionable in their methods perhaps but well within their democratic rights to protest against what they see as propaganda being rammed down their kids throats.
Either way to call them insane or unreasonable would seem to be somewhat of an, ironically enough, intolerant slur on your part.

So homophobia and sexual intolerance is a "reasonable" position now? Who knew?

Worth bearing in mind that parents do not get to determine the school curriculum in any other subject, so why all the pandering to bigotry when it comes to this one?

I think you'll find he did.

1.
a list of items to be discussed at a formal meeting.

"Miller has his own agenda and it has nothing to do with football"

It's hardly an agenda to teach kids to be nice to each other.Thats just called good manners.And if it is, it pales into insignificance next to the parents own manifest Islamic agenda.

It's the definition, as i just showed. Not necessarily an unreasonable one but thats hardly the point.
Uhuh.
Do I seriously need to explain to you that all religions take issue with gays and transsexuals (although this one is somewhat more murky as to why i guess) theres nothing uniquely Islamic about it. note how the local MP supported them?

Yes and all of the religions are wrong.If a bunch of Catholics were protesting outside the school gates I'd argue that as well.But it's not Catholics or Jews it's Muslims.And actually it's not ALL religions just the abrahamic ones.Muslims can't complain about ideologies and agendas and brainwashing if they want to be taken seriously.Thats rank hypocrisy right there.

That is one hell of a bold claim to make. I mean i don't disagree per-se but nevertheless.
Predominantly Muslims, if memory serves there were some other err concerned citizens as well. Leading on from my point of it not just being Muslims who don't like this its also not just religious people remember.
Is that really the bit you want to pick a hole in? Considering they are by leaps and bounds the most important ones in terms of numbers - never mind the fact i'm struggling to think of any other religion that actively embraces these groups...
Ummm how sorry? I'm somewhat confused as to whom you're referring to when you say 'Muslims' though? It's almost like you're trying to lump over a billion people in as one giant homogeneous group. I'd go as far as to say it seems like you're trying to push some sort of agenda, no?
