Later today, we had an interesting short debate on Religious Education. My question was - who would be an RE teacher in a period of identity politics and Cancel Culture?
The terrible treatment of the Batley Grammar School teacher is a case in point, let alone the row over Muslim prayer at Michaela School. Or indeed (and sadly ran out of time to make this point) when the various iterations of Conversion Therapy legislation threaten to criminalise RE teachers for any guidance given to pupils about clashes between traditional faith and sexuality or trans issues - to name a few.
