Pupils taken out of Islam lessons
Parents in Swindon want their children pulled from religious education classes that teach them about Islam, town headteachers have warned.
According to the annual report of the Standing Advisory Council On Religious Education – the thinktank of religious leaders, teachers, councillors and community members that meets four times a year to devise the religious education agenda in Swindon's schools – headteachers are looking for advice after being approached by parents who don't want their children to learn about Islam.
