Trojan Horse Update for you…
BBC: Bradford school governors ‘promoted Islamic agenda’

Teachers in Bradford have reported instances of governors promoting a more Islamic ethos, the BBC has learned.

Governors at Carlton Bolling College, which has a mainly Muslim intake, asked whether a broad religious agenda met the spiritual needs of students.

Documents seen by the BBC also suggest boys and girls have been segregated for trips and after-school workshops.

The chairman of the governors rejected claims of an Islamic agenda, saying his aim was to meet community needs.

The revelations come amid concerns about an Islamist takeover in some schools in Birmingham.

After the so-called Trojan Horse claims, Ofsted inspectors found evidence of a campaign to change the character and ethos of some schools in the Midlands city.
