Regressive NUT wants to undermine combating extremism

Teachers are to debate whether schools’ involvement in the Government’s flagship counter-terrorism strategy should be scrapped amid fears it is leading to attacks on young Muslims. The NUT will consider whether to call on Westminster to withdraw the Prevent duty from schools and colleges over concerns there have been too many high profile cases where pupils were wrongly referred to police for comments made during classroom discussions, the Press Association reported. For example, in January it was revealed a 10-year-old Muslim boy was quizzed by police after he mistakenly wrote that he lived in a “terrorist house” rather than a “terraced house”.

And last month, a 15-year-old boy was referred to police after clicking on the Ukip website in the classroom to research immigration.

Notice how the lefty media also play a spin on this.
The 10 year old boy was quizzed because he wrote he lived with his uncle beats him.

Any rational teacher would be concerned
The point should not even come up for discussion to be voted on as we have to combat extremism, which you targeted when people are at their most vulnerable as children. If the two examples are all they have to go on, then that really shows how pathetic these unions are

I do love it how with every post you continue to embarrass yourself

A sign of a true regressive and yet again nothing on the actual points made

The lefties truly are the Dark side of the force
