Catholic schools in Britain must not be allowed to be homophobic and oppose gay marriage, the governments top advisor on community integration has said.
Speaking to MPs on Monday, Dame Louise Casey hit out at religious conservativism, which she called anti-equalities, likening conservative Christianity to extreme Islam.
In a discussion on her recent report in which she highlighted the great social divisions between different immigrant religious groups within British society Dame Louise said that just it was not acceptable for Muslim schools to segregate boys and girls, it was also not acceptable for Catholic schools to be homophobic.
Referring to the Trojan Horse scandal, in which Islamists infiltrated and took control of secular schools in Birmingham, Dame Louise said extremism may be present in other schools across Britain.
Now, Trojan Horse is a set of issues they go from girls being split off from boys, through teachers essentially teaching extremism, she said.

It was at this point that she brought Catholic schools into the discussion, and denounced religious conservatism in general.
