Ofsted was accused of political correctness after downgrading a top rural primary school for effectively being too English.
The education watchdog faced a backlash from MPs and parents following the decision to penalise Middle Rasen primary in Lincolnshire for not having enough black or Asian pupils.
In a report, inspectors said the school was not yet outstanding because pupils cultural development was limited by a lack of first-hand experience of the diverse make up of modern British society. The move followed a shake-up of Ofsted inspections introduced in the wake of the Trojan Horse plot in Birmingham to impose hard-line Muslim values in state schools.
Schools are now told to place fundamental British values at the heart of the timetable including mutual respect and tolerance of different faiths and beliefs.
But the reforms have already been criticised for having a knock-on effect on faith schools and those dominated by pupils of a particular ethnic group.
Last month, it was claimed that a small Christian school in the Home Counties had been penalised after failing to other invite faith leaders, such as imams, in to lead assemblies.

Except for the uniforms, it looks like a lot of rural schools here in North Texas.

Won’t be long before their “modern British society” looks like a giant bowling alley with all the heads rolling down the street.
What say you?
Let me guess, they have the highest grades, the least trouble-makers and the best education and deserve to be punished.
Ofeysted?
lol
Why would they want muslims to lead assemblies in a Christian school?.......................

AND of course the Imans, in their own Islam communities surely invite other faiths' pastors/reverends/priests/rabbis to lead assemblies. Surely the Imans did or we would certainly be reading about their penalized schools. < /s>
Just digusting!!!!
